====================================
Enacted in 1998, the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), is the primary
authorization for this appropriation account. The act revitalized the
Nation's job training system to provide workers with the information,
advice, job search assistance, and training they need to get and keep
good jobs, and provides employers with skilled workers. Funds
appropriated for this account generally are available on a July to June
program year basis, but beginning in FY 2000, substantial advance
appropriation amounts were provided.
Adult employment and training activities.--Grants to provide
financial assistance to States and territories to design and operate
training programs for adults, including low-income individuals and
public assistance recipients.
Fathers work/families win.--This new program, operated under WIA
National Programs authority, will provide competitive grants to state
and local areas to: (1) help low-income non-custodial fathers increase
their employment and earnings and pay more child support and (2) provide
resources for case management and skill training for low-income families
to help them move up the career ladder and remain off cash assistance.
Dislocated worker employment and training activities.--Grants to
provide reemployment services and retraining assistance to individuals
dislocated from their employment. Also included in this activity is
funding for competitive grants for dislocated worker employment and
training activities, to be financed through fees paid by employers for
the certification of certain aliens as eligible workers under the
Immigration and Nationality Act as included in proposed legislation.
Incumbent workers.--This new program, operated under WIA National
Programs authority, will provide competitive grants to States to train
and upgrade the skills of incumbent workers to boost skills and wages of
the U.S. workforce. Applicants would be required to provide non-Federal
matching resources, and employers that receive grant assistance would be
expected to demonstrate that training increased participants' earnings.
Youth activities.--Grants to support a wide range of activities and
services to prepare low-income youth for academic and employment
success, including summer jobs. The program links academic and
occupational learning with youth development activities.
Youth opportunity grants.--Competitive grants to increase the long-
term employment of youth who live in empowerment zones, enterprise
communities, and similar high poverty areas. This activity includes
funding for the Rewarding Achievement in Youth program for competitive
grants to high poverty areas to provide low income youth with extended
summer employment opportunities and end-of-summer bonuses for high
academic achievement and job performance.
Job corps.--A system of primarily residential centers offering basic
education, training, work experience, and other support, typically to
economically disadvantaged youth.
Responsible reintegration for young offenders.--This program,
operated under WIA National Programs authority, is a continuation of the
Youth Violence initiative begun in FY 2000. It will link offenders under
the age of 35 with essential services that can help make a difference in
their choices in the future, such as education, training, job placement,
drug counseling, and mentoring, in order to reintegrate them into
mainstream society. Through states and local competitive grants, this
program would establish partnerships between the criminal justice and
local workforce investment systems, complementing a similar program in
the Department of Justice.
Safe schools/healthy students.--This program, under WIA National
Programs authority, will be operated in conjunction with the Departments
of Education, Health and Human Services, and Justice, and will provide
competitive grants to local communities. The grants will strengthen
connections among high schools, post-secondary schools, alternative
schools, out-of-school youth programs, and work-based learning programs,
in order to promote safe communities and healthy child development. They
also will help build local partnerships amoung Youth Councils, business
and community organizations, and schools to improve opportunities for
at-risk youth.
Native Americans.--Grants to Indian tribes and other Native American
groups to provide training, work experience, and other employment-
related services to Native Americans.
Migrant and seasonal farmworkers.--Grants to public agencies and
nonprofit groups to provide training and other employability development
services to economically disadvantaged youth and families whose
principal livelihood is gained in migratory and other forms of seasonal
farmwork.
Veterans workforce investment programs.--This program of grants or
contracts to provide disabled, Vietnam-era, and recently separated
veterans with job training and related assistance to meet their unique
employment and training needs will be transferred to the Assistant
Secretary for Veterans Employment and Training in FY 2001.
National programs.--Provides program support for WIA activities and
nationally administered programs for segments of the population that
have special disadvantages in the labor market. In addition, this
activity includes a demonstration program of grants to regional and
local entities to provide technical skills training for unemployed and
incumbent workers and is supported by fees paid by employers applying
for foreign workers under the H-1b temporary alien labor certification
program. This program is authorized by the American Competitiveness and
Workforce Improvement Act of 1998.
Expired programs.--Includes programs for which no funding is
requested in FY 2001, including Job Training Partnership Act Summer
Youth Employment and Training Grants, Youth Training Grants, and School-
to-Work.

Legislation will be proposed that would consolidate and reform the
Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and the NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment
Assistance (NAFTA-TAA) programs and extend the combined program through
September 30, 2005. As part of the consolidation, the proposed
legislation would extend eligibility for TAA to those who lose their
jobs due to shifts in production abroad, similar to the current
provision under NAFTA-TAA for shifts in production to Canada and Mexico.
The legislative cap on TAA training expenditures would be raised to
support the expected increase in program participants. The consolidated
program would harmonize existing requirements linking training and
income support and would provide supportive services as needed. Finally,
the proposed legislation would create a contingency funding provision to
assure that resources are available to pay for any unexpected increase
in benefits costs for eligible workers.

====================================
Unemployment compensation.--State administration amounts provide
administrative grants to State agencies which pay unemployment
compensation to eligible workers and collect State unemployment taxes
from employers. These agencies also pay unemployment benefits to former
Federal personnel as well as trade adjustment assistance to eligible
individuals. State administration amounts also provide administrative
grants to State agencies to improve the integrity and financial
stability of the unemployment compensation program through a
comprehensive program, UI Performs, to effect continuous improvement in
State performance and related activities designed to assess and reduce
errors and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse in the payment of
unemployment compensation benefits and the collection of unemployment
taxes. National activities relating to the Federal-State unemployment
insurance programs are conducted through contracts or agreements with
the State agencies or with non-state entities. Contingency funds
included in State administration are available to meet increases in the
costs of administration resulting from changes in State law, or
increases in the number of claims filed and claims paid.

Employment service.--The public employment service is a nationwide
system providing no-fee employment services to individuals who are
seeking employment and employers who are seeking workers. State
employment service activities are financed by allotment to States
distributed under a demographically based funding formula established
under the Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended. Employment service allotments
are funded on a program year basis running from July 1 through June 30
of the following year. The reemployment needs of unemployed workers who
lose their jobs through no fault of their own and who need extra job
finding help are financed by Reemployment Services grants. These funds
will be distributed to States on a program year basis running from July
1 through June 30 the following year.
Employment service activities serving national needs are conducted
through specific reimbursable agreements between the States and the
Federal Government under the Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended and other
legislation. Funding is also provided for amortization payments for
States which had independent retirement plans prior to 1980 in their
State employment service agencies.
One-stop career centers.--These funds will be used to support
voluntary State efforts to create a comprehensive system of One-Stop
Career Centers which will provide workers and employers with quick and
easy access to a wide array of enhanced career development and labor
market information services. In this activity, funds are provided for
America's Agricultural Labor Network (AgNet), a new information system
that allows growers to find workers and workers to find employment
opportunities that meet their needs. Funding for this activity is on a
program year basis, running from July 1 through June 30 of the following
year.
Work incentive assistance grants.--These funds will provide
competitive grants to improve access to and coordination of information,
benefits, and services to enable individuals with disabilities to return
to work.

This account was initiated as a result of the amendments to the
Emergency Unemployment Compensation law (P.L. 102-164, as amended) which
currently provides for general fund financing for administrative costs
related to extended benefits under the optional, total unemployment rate
trigger. These funds are transferred to a receipt account in the
Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF) in order that resources may be transferred
to the Employment Security Administration Account in the UTF for
administrative costs.

This account provides repayable advances to the Black Lung
Disability Trust Fund for making payments from that fund whenever its
balances prove insufficient. The funding requested in this appropriation
for FY 2001 is entirely for Black Lung. This spending authority is
presented as authority to borrow in the Black Lung Disability Trust
Fund. FY 1999 funding shows an advance to the Federal unemployment
benefits and allowances account.
This account also provides advances to several other accounts to pay
unemployment compensation to eligible individuals under various Federal
and State unemployment compensation laws whenever the balances in the
funds prove insufficient or whenever reimbursements to certain accounts,
as allowed by law, are to be made. Advances made to the Federal
employees compensation account in the Unemployment Trust Fund and to the
Federal unemployment benefits and allowances account are nonrepayable.
All other advances made to the Federal unemployment account and to the
Extended unemployment compensation account (both in the Unemployment
Trust Fund) are repaid, with interest, to the general fund of the
Treasury.

The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) revenues, which consist
primarily of excise taxes on coal, are not suffi
[[Page 683]]
cient to repay its $7 billion debt to the Treasury or to service the
interest on that debt. See discussion in the Black Lung Disability Trust
Fund for information on the Administration's proposal to remedy this
problem. As a part of this proposal, the Administration will propose
legislation that will provide for a $1.5 billion appropriation to permit
the BLDTF to compensate the General Fund for the forgone prepayment
premium.

Legislation will be proposed that would authorize the Secretary of
Labor to collect fees from employers for the certification of certain
aliens as eligible workers under the Immigration and Nationality Act.
The fee proceeds will offset the costs of administering and enforcing
the alien labor program, and provide reemployment and training
assistance to U.S. workers who have been dislocated from their jobs.
The additional proviso to be included in appropriation language is
being proposed in anticipation of the enactment of authorizing
legislation. If the authorizing legislation is enacted, the proviso will
reduce the amounts available under the Program Administration heading so
that total resources
[[Page 685]]
will not exceed the amount allowed under the discretionary spending
caps. The proviso allows agencies to spend whatever fees are collected,
possibly more or possibly less than the estimates in the schedule, or
the specified reduction in Program Administration expenditures.

====================================
The financial transactions of the Federal-State and railroad
unemployment insurance systems are made through the Unemployment Trust
Fund. All State and Federal unemployment tax receipts are deposited in
the trust fund and invested in Government securities until needed for
benefit payments or administrative costs. States may receive repayable
advances from the fund when their balances in the fund are insufficient
to pay benefits. The fund may receive repayable advances from the
general fund when it has insufficient balances to make advances to
States or to pay the Federal share of extended benefits.
State payroll taxes pay for all regular State benefits. During
periods of high State unemployment, extended benefits, financed one-half
by State payroll taxes and one-half by the Federal unemployment payroll
tax, are also paid. The Federal tax pays the costs of Federal and State
administration of unemployment insurance and veterans employment
services and 97% of the costs of the employment service.
The Federal employees compensation account provides funds to States
for unemployment compensation benefits paid to eligible former Federal
civilian personnel, Postal Service employees, and ex-servicemembers.
Benefits paid are reimbursed to the Federal employees compensation
account by the various Federal agencies. Any additional resources
necessary to assure that the account can make the required payments to
States will be provided from the Advances to the Unemployment Trust Fund
and other funds account.
Both the benefit payments and administrative expenses of the
separate unemployment insurance program for railroad employees are paid
from the unemployment trust fund and
[[Page 686]]
receipts from the tax on railroad payrolls are deposited in the fund to
meet expenses.

This wholly owned government corporation administers programs of
mandatory insurance to prevent loss of pension benefits under covered
private, defined-benefit pension plans if single-employer plans
terminate or if multiemployer plans are unable to pay benefits.
Single-employer program.--The single-employer program protects about
33 million participants in about 42,000 pension plans. Under this
program, a company may voluntarily seek to terminate its plan, or the
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) may seek termination under
certain circumstances. The PBGC must seek termination when a plan cannot
pay current benefits.
In a ``standard'' termination, plan assets must be sufficient to pay
all benefits before the plan is allowed to end. That payment is in the
form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company or a lump sum
payment. After the payment is made, the PBGC guarantee ends. A plan that
cannot pay all benefits may be ended by a ``distress'' termination, but
only if the employer meets tests proving severe financial distress; for
example, the likelihood that continuing the plan would force the company
to shut down. If the terminated plan cannot pay at least the PBGC-
guaranteed benefits, the PBGC uses its funds to ensure guaranteed
benefits are paid.

trusteeships owed benefits.......... 532,000 572,000 612,000
Retirees receiving monthly benefits. 214,890 228,800 244,800
Multiemployer program.--The multiemployer insurance program protects
about 8.7 million participants in about 2,000 plans. Multiemployer
pension plans are maintained under collectively bargained agreements
involving unrelated employers, generally in the same industry. If a
PBGC-insured multiemployer plan is unable to pay guaranteed benefits
when due, the PBGC will provide the plan with financial assistance to
continue paying guaranteed benefits, ordinarily in the form of a loan to
the plan. Twenty-five plans are expected to receive assistance in 2001.
Administrative expenses subject to limitation.--Provides for
collection of nearly $1 billion in premiums, accounting and auditing
services, asset management, executive direction, and other support
functions.
Services related to terminations.--This activity provides for
needed, but unpredictable, costs related to benefits administration,
actuarial services, managing the assets of trusteed plans, and a share
of other costs arising from plan termination. Funding includes
enhancement in customer services to process final benefit determinations
faster.

Without sufficient assets......... 122 110 110
Time to replace initial with final
benefit levels...................... 5.7 yrs 4-5 yrs 3-4 yrs
Financing.--The primary source of financing is annual premiums paid
by sponsors of ongoing covered plans, which vary according to the plans'
funding level. Other sources of financing include assets from terminated
plans, investment income, and amounts due PBGC from the sponsors of
terminating plans. Also, PBGC is authorized to borrow up to $100 million
from the U.S. Treasury.

The Administration will propose legislation to expand pension
coverage, improve benefit portability, and strengthen retirement
security. Included in the package will be: (1) a new, simplified,
defined-benefit pension plan for small businesses that is insured by
PBGC at a reduced rate; (2) raising the current guarantee cap on
multiemployer pension benefits; (3) extending PBGC's ``missing
participants'' program to terminating defined-contribution and
multiemployer plans; (4) eliminating the ``partial termination'' rules
for multiemployer plans; (5) reducing premium charges for certain new
plans; and (6) simplifying the guarantee and allocation rules for owners
of small businesses.

Enforcement of wage and hour standards.--The Wage and Hour Division
works to obtain and encourage compliance with the minimum wage,
overtime, child labor, and other employment standards under the Fair
Labor Standards Act, Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection
Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, certain provisions of the
Immigration and Nationality Act, the wage garnishment provisions in
Title III of the Consumer Credit Protection Act, and the Employee
Polygraph Protection Act. Prevailing wages are determined and employment
standards enforced under various Government contract wage standards. In
2001, approximately 267,000 persons are expected to be aided under the
Fair Labor Standards Act through securing agreements with firms to pay
back wages owed to their workers. In government contract compliance
actions, about 37,000 persons will be aided through securing agreements
to pay wages owed to workers. Under the Migrant and Seasonal
Agricultural Worker Protection Act program, approximately 2,500
investigations and 900 housing inspections will be completed. In the
course of all on-site investigations, investigators will routinely check
for employer compliance with child labor standards and, in all
``directed'' (non-complaint) investigations, for compliance with the
employment eligibility verification recordkeeping requirements of the
Immigration and Nationality Act. Resources will be earmarked for Davis-
Bacon wage survey/wage determination reengineering and reinvention in FY
2001. The reengineering efforts will be substantially completed in 2001.
The Budget maintains resources for the Wage and Hour Division which are
assigned to areas where employment of illegal immigrants is most
prevalent. The targeting of labor standards enforcement efforts in those
industries and geographic areas where unauthorized workers are most
prevalent will help to reduce the economic incentive for such illegal
employment practices and will, in turn, help reduce illegal immigration.
FY 2000 and FY 2001 include fees paid by employers applying for foreign
workers under the H1-b program.
Federal contractor equal employment opportunity (EEO) standards
enforcement.--The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP)
is responsible for ensuring nondiscrimination in employment based on
race, sex, religion, color, national origin, disability or veteran
status by Federal contractors and subcontractors at 200,000 worksites
with a total workforce of 22 million people. It conducts compliance
reviews and complaint investigations. It assures that Federal
contractors and subcontractors take affirmative action in the hiring and
advancement of minorities and women under the authority of Executive
Orders 11246 and 11375. It enforces the affirmative action and
nondiscrimination provisions of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and, as
an agent of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Americans
With Disabilities Act of 1990. It ensures that contractors comply with
the provisions of the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act
of 1974, providing for affirmative action by Federal contractors to
employ, and advance in employment, special disabled and Vietnam era
veterans.
The Budget includes resources to increase compliance by improving
efficiency and customer service in the National Office and in each of
the Regional Offices. The resources will give added impetus to the
technical assistance effort to assist Federal contractors in
understanding the regulatory requirements. Specific emphasis will
continue the assistance to smaller companies that may not have the
expertise to develop Affirmative Action Programs. It also provides an
enhancement to the Equal Pay initiative for an Industry Partnership
initiative, which will help improve compliance efforts in glass ceiling
issues as well as focus on discrimination in nontraditional occupations.
This initiative is part of an overall effort to increase compliance
through enhanced compliance assistance. Moreover, OFCCP will maintain
reduced reporting requirements. The staff will provide grassroots
seminars and technical assistance training sessions for contractors,
contracting agencies, government agencies, and constituency
[[Page 691]]
groups through continued development and use of existing information
technology. In 2001, approximately 1,978,192 individuals will be
directly aided through 6,260 compliance reviews, 342 complaint
investigations, and 3,066 other compliance actions.
Federal programs for workers' compensation.--Under this income
maintenance activity, the Employment Standards Administration
administers the Federal Employees' Compensation Act, the Longshore and
Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, and the benefit provisions of the
Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. These programs ensure that
eligible disabled and injured workers or their survivors receive
compensation and medical benefits and a range of services including
rehabilitation, supervision of medical care, and technical and advisory
counseling to which they are entitled. Monitoring services are provided
with respect to State workers' compensation laws.
Program direction and support.--This activity includes planning,
personnel management, financial management, and Federal/State liaison
programs, management systems implementation, and data processing
operations. Major goals in 2001 will include the continued efforts to
eliminate internal fraud, waste, and mismanagement; the improvement of
management information, automated data processing, and program and
fiscal accountability; and legislative and regulatory improvements.
Labor-management standards.--The Office of Labor-Management
Standards (OLMS) receives and discloses statutorily required union
financial reports; audits union financial records and investigates
possible embezzlements of union funds; conducts union officer election
investigations; supervises reruns of union officer elections after court
determinations that elections were not conducted in accordance with the
Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act; and administers the
statutory program to certify employee protection provisions under
various Federally-sponsored transportation programs. In FY 2001, OLMS
expects to process 36,000 reports and conduct a total of 3,701
investigations, audits, and supervised elections.

Federal Employees' Compensation Act benefits.--Under the Federal
Employees' Compensation Act program, income is replaced if a job injury
results in time away from work. Medical bills arising from compensable
job injuries are also paid. Not all benefits are paid by the program
since the first 45 days of disability are usually covered by keeping
injured workers in pay status with their employing agencies. In 2001,
165,000 injured federal workers or their survivors will file claims;
53,000 will receive long-term wage replacement benefits for job-related
injuries, diseases, or deaths. Most of the costs of this account are
charged back to the employing agencies of beneficiaries.

Panama Canal Commission Compensation Fund.--This fund was
established to provide for the accumulation of funds to meet the Panama
Canal Commission's obligations to defray costs of workers' compensation
which will accrue pursuant to the Federal Employees' Compensation Act
(FECA). On December 31, 1999, the Commission was dissolved as set forth
in the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977, and the liability of the Commission
for payments beyond that date will not end with its termination. The
establishment of this fund, into which funds will be deposited on a
regular basis by the Commission, is in conjunction with the transfer of
the administration of the FECA program from the Commission to the
Department of Labor effective January 1, 1989.

The trust fund consists of all moneys collected from the coal mine
industry under the provisions of the Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of
1981, as amended by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1985, in the form of an excise tax on mined coal. These moneys are
expended to pay compensation, medical, and survivor benefits to eligible
miners and their survivors, where mine employment terminated prior to
1970 or where no mine operator can be assigned liability. In addition,
the fund pays all administrative costs incurred in the operation of part
C of the Black Lung program. The fund is administered jointly by the
Secretaries of Labor, the Treasury, and Health and Human Services. The
Benefits Revenue Act provides for repayable advances to the fund in the
event fund resources will not be adequate to meet program obligations.
Such advances are to be repaid with interest. The outstanding debt at
the end of each year was: 1981, $1,510 million; 1982, $1,793 million;
1983, $2,151 million; 1984, $2,497 million; 1985, $2,833 million; 1986,
$2,884 million; 1987, $2,952 million; 1988, $2,993 million; 1989, $3,049
million; 1990, $3,049 million; 1991, $3,266 million; 1992, $3,606
million; 1993, $3,949 million; 1994, $4,363 million; 1995, $4,738
million; 1996, $5,112 million; 1997, $5,487 million; 1998, $5,857
million; and 1999, $6,259 million. It is estimated to be $6,673 million
in 2000 and $7,108 million in 2001.

The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) revenues, which consist
primarily of excise taxes on coal, are not sufficient to repay its
nearly $7 billion debt to the Treasury or to service the interest on
that debt. Under current conditions, this indebtedness will continue to
grow, with the BLDTF never becoming solvent, even when benefit outlays
have declined to a level approaching zero. To solve this problem, the
Administration will propose legislation that will: (1) authorize a
refinancing of the outstanding BLDTF debt, (2) extend at current rates
BLDTF excise tax levels set to expire in January 2014, and (3) provide
for a $1.5 billion appropriation to compensate the General Fund for the
forgone prepayment premium.

The trust funds consist of amounts received from employers for the
death of an employee where no person is entitled to compensation for
such death, for fines and penalty payments, and pursuant to an annual
assessment of the industry, for the general expenses of the fund under
the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, as amended.
These trust funds are available for payments of additional
compensation for second injuries. When a second injury is combined with
a previous disability and results in increased permanent partial
disability, permanent total disability, or death, the employer's
liability for benefits is limited to a specified period of compensation
payments after which the fund provides continuing compensation benefits.
In addition, the fund pays one-half of the increased benefits provided
under the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, as amended,
for persons on the rolls prior to 1972. Maintenance payments are made to
disabled employees undergoing vocational rehabilitation to enable them
to return to remunerative occupations, and the costs of necessary
rehabilitation services not otherwise available to disabled workers are
defrayed. Payments are made in cases where other circumstances preclude
payment by an employer and to provide medical, surgical, and other
treatment in disability cases where there has been a default by the
insolvency of an uninsured employer.

Safety and health standards.--The safety and health standards
activity provides for the development, promulgation, review and
evaluation of occupational safety and health standards under procedures
providing opportunity for public comment. Before any standard is
proposed or promulgated, a determination is made that: (1) a significant
risk of serious injury or health impairment exists; (2) the standard
will reduce this risk; (3) the standard is economically and
technologically feasible; and (4) the standard is cost-effective when
compared with alternative regulatory proposals providing equal levels of
protection. Regulatory reform efforts include consensus-based
rulemaking, development of common sense regulations, rewriting existing
standards in plain language, and regulatory process improvements.
Enforcement.--This activity provides for the enforcement of
workplace standards promulgated under the Occupational Safety and Health
Act of 1970 through the physical inspection of worksites, and by
fostering the voluntary cooperation of employers and employees. This
activity also provides grants to assist States in administering and
enforcing State standards. Programs are targeted to the investigation of
claims of imminent danger and employee complaints, investigation of
fatal and catastrophic accidents, programmed inspections of firms with
injury-illness rates that are above the national average, and special
emphasis inspections for serious safety and health hazards. OSHA's
enforcement strategy includes a selective targeting of inspections and
related compliance activities to specific high hazard industries and
worksites.
Technical support.--This activity provides specialized technical
expertise and advice in support of a wide range of program areas,
including construction, standards setting, variance determinations,
compliance assistance, and enforcement. Areas of expertise include
laboratory accreditation, industrial hygiene, ergonomics, occupational
health nursing, occupational medicine, and safety engineering.
Compliance assistance--Federal.--This activity supports a variety of
employer and employee assistance programs, consistent with OSHA's
partnership initiatives. Outreach activities are conducted, including
training and information exchanges and technical assistance to employers
requesting such help. Grants are awarded to nonprofit organizations to
provide employee and employer training programs, targeted to address
specific industry needs for safety and health education. Employers are
encouraged to establish voluntary employee protection programs, and
Federal agencies are assisted in implementing job safety and health
programs for their employees. Professional training for compliance
personnel and others with related workplace safety and health
responsibilities is conducted at the OSHA Training Institute, and
further training is provided by education centers selected and
sanctioned by the institute.
Compliance assistance--State.--This activity supports 90 percent
Federally-funded cooperative agreements with designated State agencies
to provide free on-site consultation to employers upon request. State
agencies tailor workplans to specific needs in each State while
maximizing their impact on injury and illness rates in smaller
establishments. These projects offer a variety of services, including
safety and health program assessment and assistance, hazard
identification and control, and training of employers and their
employees.
Safety and health statistics.--Information technology, management
information and statistical support for OSHA's programs and field
operations are provided through an integrated data network, and
statistical analysis and review. OSHA administers and maintains the
recordkeeping system which serves as the foundation for the BLS survey
on occupational injuries and illnesses, provides guidance on
recordkeeping requirements to both the public and private sectors, and
develops regulations along with interpretive publications and materials.
Executive direction and administration.--These activities include
executive direction, planning and evaluation, management support,
legislative liaison, interagency affairs, administrative services, and
budgeting and financial control.

Enforcement.--The Enforcement strategy in 2001 will be an integrated
approach that links all actions to preventing occupational injuries and
illness. These include inspection of mines as mandated by the Federal
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, special emphasis initiatives that
focus on persistent safety and health hazards, promulgation of safety
and health standards, investigation of serious accidents, and on-site
education and training assistance. The desired outcome of these
enforcement efforts is to lower fatality and injury rates.
Assessments.--This activity assesses and collects civil monetary
penalties for violations of safety and health standards.
Educational policy and development.--This activity develops and
coordinates MSHA's mine safety and health education and training
policies, and provides classroom instruction at the National Academy for
MSHA personnel, other governmental personnel, and the mining industry.
States provide mine health and safety training materials, and provide
technical assistance through the State Grants program.
Technical support.--This activity applies engineering and scientific
expertise through field and laboratory forensic investigations to
resolve technical problems associated with imple- mentation of the Mine
Act. Technical support administers a fee program to approve equipment,
materials, and explosives for use in mines and performs field and
laboratory audits of equipment previously approved by MSHA. It also
collects and analyzes data relative to the cause, frequency, and
circumstances of accidents.
Program administration.--This activity provides for general
administrative functions.

Program direction and support.--Provides leadership and direction
for all programs and functions assigned to the Department. Provides
guidance for the development and implementation of governmental policy
to protect and promote the interests of the American worker, toward
achieving better employment and earnings, promoting productivity and
economic growth, safety, equity and affirmative action in employment,
and collecting and analyzing statistics on the labor force.
Legal services.--Provides the Secretary of Labor and Departmental
program officials with the legal services required to accomplish the
Department's mission. The major services include litigating cases,
providing assistance to the Department of Justice in case preparation
and trials, reviewing rules, orders and written interpretations and
opinions for DOL program agencies and the public, and coordinating the
Department's legislative program.
International labor affairs.--Coordinates the Department of Labor's
international responsibilities, including U.S. government participation
in international fora dealing with labor issues; publishes reports on
international labor issues; assists in the formulation and
implementation of international treaties dealing with labor issues;
operates technical assistance programs; and works toward the elimination
of exploitative child labor around the world.
Administration and management.--Exercises leadership in all
Departmental administrative and management programs and services and
ensures efficient and effective operation of Departmental programs;
provides policy guidance on matters of personnel management, information
resource management and procurement; and provides for consistent and
constructive internal labor-management relations throughout the
Department.
Adjudication.--Conducts formal hearings and renders timely decisions
on claims filed under the Black Lung Benefits Act, the Longshore and
Harbor Workers' Compensation Act and its extensions, the Federal
Employees' Compensation Act and other acts involving complaints to
determine violations of minimum wage requirements, overtime payments,
health and safety regulations and unfair labor practices.
Disability policy.--This activity includes funding to establish the
Office on Disability Policy, Evaluation, and Technical Assistance,
within the Department of Labor to be headed by a Presidential appointee.
This office will subsume the responsibilities of the President's
Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities in terms of
providing leadership to eliminate employment barriers to people with
disabilities. In addition, the office will work within DOL to ensure
that all DOL programs address the needs of the disabled and increase
participation of people with disabilities in DOL training programs--
particularly those serving youth. Finally, the office would provide
grants to One-Stop Centers to finance assistive technology devices that
ensure accessibility of the One-Stops to the disabled.
This activity also includes the President's Task Force on the
Employment of Adults with Disabilities. The Task Force is developing a
national policy to bring adults with disabilities into gainful
employment at a rate that is as close as possible to that of the general
population. The Task Force is studying the barriers to employment faced
by disabled individuals and is reporting its findings and policy
recommendations to the President on a periodic basis over its four-year
life. The Task Force will work with the new Office of Disability Policy,
Evaluation, and Technical Assistance to continue its role of
coordinating interagency employment policy for the disabled.
Women's bureau.--Promotes the interests of wage earning women, and
seeks to improve their working conditions and advance their
opportunities for profitable employment.
Civil rights.--Ensures full compliance with title VI of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 and other regulatory nondiscrimination provisions in

promotes equal opportunity in these programs and activities; and
ensures equal employment opportunity to all DOL employees and applicants
for employment.
Chief financial officer.--Responsible for enhancing the level of
knowledge and skills of Departmental staff working in financial
management operations; developing comprehensive accounting and financial
management policies; assuring that all DOL financial functions conform
to applicable standards; providing leadership and coordination to DOL
agencies' trust and benefit fund financial actions; monitoring the
financial execution of the budget in relation to actual expenditures;
and managing a comprehensive training program for budget, accounting,
and financial support staff.
Information technology activities.--This is a new activity which
establishes a permanent, centralized IT investment fund for the
Department of Labor (DOL) managed by the Chief Information Officer
(CIO). As required by the Clinger Cohen Act, in 1996, the Department
established a Chief Information Officer accountable for IT management in
the DOL, and implemented an IT Capital Investment Management process for
selecting, controlling, and evaluating IT investments. The Department
also began developing an information technology architecture to
establish a baseline of existing information technologies and provide a
target environment as a framework for future information technology
investments.
