Abstract
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the utility of government information, invites the general public and other Federal agencies the opportunity to comment on a proposed information collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed information collection project titled Assessing Sexual and Gender Minority (SGM) Occupational Well- Being from The PRIDE Study. This project aims to describe the SGM workforce population, their health and well-being experiences, and their work-related health and well-being determinants and outcomes.

Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations
AGENCY: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice with comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part
of its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the
utility of government information, invites the general public and other
Federal agencies the opportunity to comment on a proposed information
collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This
notice invites comment on a proposed information collection project
titled Assessing Sexual and Gender Minority (SGM) Occupational Well-
Being from The PRIDE Study. This project aims to describe the SGM
workforce population, their health and well-being experiences,
[[Page 38154]]
and their work-related health and well-being determinants and outcomes.
DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before July 8, 2024.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2024-
0031 by either of the following methods:
<bullet> Federal eRulemaking Portal: <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>. Follow

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires
Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information
collection before submitting the collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a
proposed data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
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;
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; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Assessing Sexual and Gender Minority Occupational Well-Being from
The PRIDE Study--New--National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Persons who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer,
intersex, or another sexual orientation/gender identity (LGBTQIA+),
also known as sexual and gender minority (SGM) persons, comprise a
notable and rapidly growing percentage of the U.S. working population.
Yet they are often overlooked in terms of health research and policies
offering health assurances and safety protections at work. Currently,
there is no national dataset or data system that provides detailed
health experiences and well-being information on SGM workers. The
Population Research in Identity and Disparities for Equality (PRIDE)
Study is a national SGM community health survey conducted by The
University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Stanford University
and the first national, longitudinal cohort study of comprehensive SGM
physical, mental, and social health that studies how being LGBTQIA+
influences health. The proposed project will enable The PRIDE Study to
collect, for the first time, information on the health and well-being
experiences of SGM workers, and for NIOSH to use these findings to
characterize the U.S. SGM workforce, their health experiences, and
factors potentially associated with their work-related health outcomes.
Primary data will be collected from The PRIDE Study's ongoing
participant cohort, using a survey to collect information through The
PRIDE Study's online digital survey platform. The survey will be a
modified version of NIOSH's Worker Well-Being Questionnaire (Well-BQ)
to include work and health experience information specific to SGM
workers. Results will be used to establish descriptive baseline health
information on U.S. SGM workers, describe factors that may be
associated with SGM worker health and well-being outcomes, and improve
the capabilities of The PRIDE Study, a population health assessment
tool, to better assess the work-related health experiences of the SGM
workforce.
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 1,015 annual burden
hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to
participate.
