SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), USAID is providing the
general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on
the proposed collection of information. USAID is requesting a general
clearance to provide and conduct workforce surveys, interviews, and
focus groups with a diverse workforce consisting of numerous hiring
mechanisms, including, but not limited to, U.S. direct hires, fellows,
interns, Personal Services Contractors, Institutional Support
Contractors, Coordinating Country Nationals, and Third Country
Nationals. The goal of data collection under this generic clearance is
to collect workforce feedback on organizational health, operations,
workforce culture, and work environment necessary to strengthen mission
readiness and better achieve its development objectives. USAID will
only collect data from the approximately 11,000 members of the USAID
workforce with minimal collection of personally identifiable
information. The total estimated number of annual burden hours for
these workforce population surveys is 41,250 hours. USAID will limit
analysis and reporting to summary level statistics that will only be
available to the internal workforce.
OMB Control Number: TBD.
Dated: December 4, 2023.
Erin Brown,
Deputy Director, M/MPBP.
