SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP) is a
recruitment program that connects students with disabilities to an
opportunity for employment. Through participating colleges and
universities, WRP creates a talent pool for Federal and interested
private-sector employers nationwide to find college students and recent
graduates with disabilities, including veterans, who are eager to
demonstrate their abilities in the workplace through internships or
permanent jobs. Candidates are not placed into jobs; they are simply
applying to be part of a resume talent database of postsecondary
students and recent graduates with disabilities that is made available
to Federal employers directly and to the private sector through a
contractor. Employers will then reach out to candidates directly if
they are interested in interviewing or hiring them for a specific
position. Candidates also have the opportunity to participate in
program career development activities and receive communication about
hiring fairs and other federal opportunities shared with the WRP. For
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register on Febuary 9, 2026 (91 FR
5782).
This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and
the public is generally not required to respond to an information
collection, unless the OMB approves it and displays a currently valid
OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions
of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to
comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid
OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for
three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than
three (3) years without renewal. The DOL notes that information
collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive
a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
