SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35), as amended by the
Clinger-Cohen Act (Pub. L. 104-106), OPM is soliciting comments for
this collection. OPM collects and maintains record-level data on job
applicants, Federal employees, annuitants, and other beneficiaries of
OPM's programs and services. Research Agreements for the Use of OPM
Record-Level Data is OPM's proposed mechanism to share data to further
policy-relevant Federal workforce research. OPM will collect
information through a Research Agreement Application to enable OPM to
determine whether providing record level data to a research entity is
in the public interest. This is a new collection to establish OPM's
Research Agreement program.
The information collection was previously published in the Federal
Register on November 25, 2022, at 87 FR 72518, allowing for a 60-day
public comment period. OPM received one public comment that was not
relevant to the proposed collection. The purpose of this notice is to
allow an additional 30 days for public comments. Therefore, we invite
comments that:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submissions of responses.
