====================================
Enacted in 1998, the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) is the primary
authorization for this appropriation account. WIA authorization expired
on September 30, 2003. The act is intended to revitalize 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
[[Page 719]]
to provide employers with skilled workers. Funds appropriated for this
account generally are available on a July to June program year basis,
and substantial advance appropriation amounts are provided.
Adult employment and training activities.--Grants to provide
financial assistance to States and territories to design and operate
training and employment assistance programs for adults, including low-
income individuals and public assistance recipients.
Dislocated worker employment and training activities.--Grants to
provide reemployment services and retraining assistance to individuals
dislocated from their employment.
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.
Job Corps.--A system of primarily residential centers offering basic
education, training, work experience, and other support, typically to
economically disadvantaged youth.
Prisoner Re-entry Initiative.--Supports activities to help
individuals exiting prison make a successful transition to community
life and long-term employment. The 2007 Budget provides the third year
of funding for the four-year Prisoner Re-entry Initiative, involving the
Departments of Justice, Labor, and Housing and Urban Development, which
will fund grants to faith-based and community organizations to help
reduce recidivism among non-violent ex-offenders through mentorships,
job training, and other critical services.
Native Americans.--Grants to Indian tribes and other Native American
groups to provide training, work experience, and other employment-
related services to Native Americans.
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.
Community-Based Job Training Grants.--A grant program to provide
training through community colleges that will be focused on industries
with demonstrated labor shortages.

Legislation will be proposed for 2007 to reform the Workforce
Investment Act (WIA). The legislation would increase individual choice
about job training, offer ``Career Advancement Accounts,'' increase
State flexibility to administer the programs, and increase
accountability for performance. The proposal would consolidate the
Adult, Dislocated Worker, Youth Activities, Work Opportunity Tax Credit,
Labor Market Information, and Employment Service State grants into a
single State grant to facilitate coordination and eliminate duplication
in the provision of services.
In addition, legislation will be proposed for 2007 to transfer
Youthbuild from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to the
Department of Labor, as recommended by the White House Task Force on
Disadvantaged Youth, to allow for greater coordination of the program
with Job Corps and other employment and training programs. Youthbuild
provides grants to local organizations to provide education and training
to disadvantaged youth aged 16-24. In addition to participating in
classroom training, youth learn construction skills by helping to build
affordable housing.

The Trade Adjustment Assistance Reform Act of 2002 (Division A of
Public Law 107-210) was signed into law on August 6, 2002. This Act
amended the Trade Act of 1974 to consolidate the previous Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance
(NAFTA-TAA) programs into a single, enhanced TAA program with expanded
eligibility, services, and benefits, which includes adjustment
assistance, including cash weekly benefits, training, job search and
relocation allowances. Additionally, the act provides for a program of
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (wage insurance) for older
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. The purpose is 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. A
workload reserve is included in State administration 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. The
appropriation automatically provides additional funds whenever
unemployment claims workload increases above budgeted levels.

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 allotments 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.
Employment service activities serving national needs, which includes
certification of aliens for employment-based visas, 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 the
joint Federal-State efforts to improve the comprehensive One-Stop system
created under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). This system provides
workers and employers with quick and easy access to a wide array of
enhanced career development and labor market information services.
Work incentive grants.--These funds provide competitive grants to
improve access to and coordination of information, benefits, and
services to enable individuals with disabilities to return to work. Work
incentive grants have successfully demonstrated approaches to improve
the accessibility to One-Stop services for job seekers with
disabilities. States and localities are now expected to finance these
approaches through their base resources for community-based career
centers.

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 loans 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 receipts from the tax on railroad
payrolls are deposited in the fund to meet expenses.

This wholly owned government corporation administers mandatory
insurance programs 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 benefit payment.--The single-employer program
protects about 34.2 million participants in about 28,800 pension plans.
Under this program, a company may voluntarily seek to terminate its
plan, or 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.

Retirees receiving monthly
benefits...................... 682,820 731,820 780,820
Multi-employer financial assistance.--The multiemployer insurance
program protects about 9.9 million participants in about 1,600 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.
Pension insurance activities.--Includes premium collections, premium
investments, pre-trusteeship work, and pension insurance program
protection activities.
Pension plan termination.--Includes all activities related to
trusteeship; plan asset management, investment and accounting; and
benefit administration services.
Operational support.--Includes the administrative, information
technology infrastructure, and other shared program support for both
PBGC's insurance and plan termination activities.

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.

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, the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker
Protection Act (MSPA), the Family and Medical Leave Act, certain
provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 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 2007, approximately 250,000 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 17,000 persons will be
aided through securing agreements to pay wages owed to workers. Under
MSPA, approximately 1,500 investigations 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
INA. 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.
Federal contractor Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) standards
enforcement.--The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP)
enforces equal employment opportunity and nondiscrimination requirements
of Federal contractors and subcontractors. In particular, OFCCP
enforces: Executive Order 11246, which prohibits employment
discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion, color, and national
origin; Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990 (through a memorandum of understanding
with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), which prohibit
employment discrimination against individuals with disabilities; and the
Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended,
which prohibits employment discrimination against certain protected
veterans. OFCCP programs cover close to 200,000 work-sites with a total
workforce of 26 million persons.
OFCCP monitors contractors' compliance through systemic
discrimination cases, and reporting requirements. In 2007, approximately
2,190,000 individuals will be covered through 7,300 compliance
evaluations, 280 complaint investigations, and 1,900 other compliance
actions.
OFCCP also encourages and supports voluntary compliance by providing
compliance assistance to covered contractors. In 2007, 500 compliance
assistance events will be provided to federal contractors and other
stakeholders. For example, as part of its compliance assistance program,
OFCCP provides technical assistance to contractors through Industry
Liaison Groups. In addition, OFCCP has placed important compliance
assistance information on the Internet. OFCCP also ensures that Federal
contractors and subcontractors are provided linkages to recruitment
sources for hiring and advancement of minorities, women, protected
veterans and individuals with disabilities. OFCCP honors Federal
contractors and linkage organizations through the Secretary of Labor
Opportunity Awards and the EVE/EPIC program for their outstanding
compliance initiatives.
Federal programs for workers' compensation.--The Office of Workers'
Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers the Federal Employees'
Compensation Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act,
the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act, and
the Black Lung Benefits Act. 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. OWCP also monitors State workers' compensation
laws.
Program direction and support.--The Program Direction and Support
(PDS) activity provides centralized leadership, policy, coordination and
essential administrative support in the areas of human resources,
information technology; budget and financial management; strategic
planning; performance reporting; legislative and regulatory analysis;
employee safety and health; labor relations; equal employment
opportunity enforcement, and general support services to all ESA program
components. PDS performs an essential role in the Employment Standards
Administration's pursuit of its mission to support, protect and defend
the rights of American workers, by providing the necessary policy,
planning, guidance, and management to effectively implement policies and
priorities.
Labor-management standards.--The Office of Labor-Management
Standards (OLMS) receives and discloses reports that the law requires of
unions and others, including 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 pursuant to voluntary settlements or 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 2007, OLMS plans
enhanced efforts to advance union transparency and financial integrity
protections, primarily through increased union audits and compliance
assistance efforts. OLMS expects to process 36,000 reports and conduct a
total of 4,607 investigations, audits, and supervised elections.

====================================
Federal Employees' Compensation Act benefits.--The Federal
Employees' Compensation Act program provides monetary and medical
benefits to Federal workers who sustain work-related injury or disease.
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 (the continuation-of-pay period). In 2007,
152,000 injured Federal workers or their survivors will file claims;
58,000 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 beneficiaries' employing agencies.

The Administration will repropose legislation to improve the Federal
Employees' Compensation Act (FECA), which has not been substantially
updated since 1974. The legislative proposal would amend FECA to convert
prospectively retirement-age beneficiaries to a retirement-level
benefit; impose an up-front waiting period for benefits; streamline
claims processing; permit DOL to recapture additional compensation costs
from responsible third parties; and make other changes to improve and
update FECA. These changes would generate Government-wide savings of
$592 million.

Energy Employees' Compensation Act benefits.--The Department of
Labor is delegated responsibility to adjudicate and administer claims
for benefits under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness
Compensation Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA). In July 2001, the program
began accepting claims from employees or survivors of employees of the
Department of Energy (DOE) and of private companies under contract with
DOE who suffer from a radiation-related cancer, beryllium-related
disease, or chronic silicosis as a result of
[[Page 734]]
their work in producing or testing nuclear weapons. The Act authorizes a
lump-sum payment of $150,000 and reimbursement of medical expenses.
The Ronald Reagan National Defense Authorization Act of 2005 (P.L.
108-767) amended EEOICPA, giving DOL responsibility for a new program
(Part E) to pay workers' compensation benefits to Department of Energy
contractors and their families for illness and death arising from toxic
exposures in DOE's nuclear weapons complex. The new law also provides
compensation for uranium workers covered under section 5 of the
Radiation Exposure Compensation Act. Benefit payments under Part E began
in 2005.

Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of
2000 (EEOICPA) administration.--Under Executive Order 13179 the
Secretary of Labor is assigned primary responsibility for administering
the Energy Employees Compensation program, while other responsibilities
have been delegated to the Departments of Health and Human Services
(HHS), Energy (DOE), and Justice (DOJ). The Office of Workers'
Compensation Programs (OWCP) in the Department of Labor is responsible
for claims adjudication, and award and payment of compensation and
medical benefits. The Office of the Solicitor provides legal support and
represents the Department in claimant appeals of OWCP decisions. HHS is
responsible for developing individual dose reconstructions to estimate
occupational radiation exposure, and developing regulations to guide
DOL's determination of whether an individual's cancer was caused by
radiation exposure at a DOE or atomic weapons facility. DOE is
responsible for providing exposure histories at employment facilities
covered under the Act, as well as other employment information. DOJ
assists claimants who have been awarded compensation under the Radiation
Exposure Compensation Act to file for additional compensation, including
medical benefits, under EEOICPA.
The Ronald Reagan National Defense Authorization Act of 2005 (P.L.
108-767) amended EEOICPA, giving DOL responsibility for a new program
(Part E) to pay workers' compensation benefits to Department of Energy
contractors and their families for illness and death arising from toxic
exposures in DOE's nuclear weapons complex. The new law also provides
compensation for uranium workers covered by the Radiation Exposure
Compensation Act. Administrative expenses for Part E are covered through
indefinite, mandatory appropriations provided in P.L. 108-767.

Title IV of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act authorizes
monthly benefits to coal miners disabled from coal workers'
pneumoconiosis (black lung) and to their widows and certain other
dependents. Part B of the Act assigned the processing and paying of
claims filed between December 30, 1969 (when the program originated) and
June 30, 1973 to the Social Security Administration (SSA). P.L. 107-275
transferred Part B claims processing and payment operations from SSA to
the Department of Labor's (DOL) Employment Standards Administration
(ESA), Office of Workers' Compensation Programs. This change was
implemented on October 1, 2003.

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
[[Page 736]]
(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 did not end with its termination. The
establishment of this fund, into which funds were deposited on a regular
basis by the Commission, was 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
[[Page 737]]
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; 2003, $8,244 million; 2004, $8,659 million; and 2005, $9,107
million. It is estimated to be $9,571 million in 2006 and $10,023
million in 2007 if the refinancing proposal is not enacted.

The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund's revenues, which are primarily
coal excise taxes, are insufficient to repay the $9 billion debt it owes
to Treasury. Under current conditions, the Trust Fund's debt could never
be repaid. The 2007 Budget reproposes legislation to restructure the
Trust Fund debt and restore the Fund's solvency. Proposed reforms would:
(1) refinance the outstanding debt; (2) extend the current excise tax
levels until solvency is attained; and (3) provide for a one-time
appropriation to compensate the General Fund for forgone interest
payments.

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.--This activity provides for the
development, promulgation, review and evaluation of feasible
occupational safety and health standards and guidance. 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 economically and
technologically feasible 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 so they are understandable to
those affected by them, and regulatory and non-regulatory process
improvements.
Enforcement.--This activity provides for the enforcement of
workplace standards promulgated under the Occupational Safety and Health
(OSH) Act of 1970 through the physical inspection of worksites, and by
fostering the voluntary cooperation of employers and employees. 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.
State programs.--This activity assists states in assuming
responsibility for administering occupational safety and health programs
under State plans approved by the Secretary. Under section 23 of the
OSHA Act, matching grants of up to fifty percent of total program costs
are made to States that meet the Act's criteria for establishing and
implementing State programs which are at least as effective as the
Federal program. State programs, like their Federal counterpart, provide
a mix of enforcement, outreach, training and compliance assistance
activities.
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, occupational health
nursing, occupational medicine, chemical analysis, equipment
calibration, safety engineering, environmental impact statements,
technical and scientific databases, computer-based outreach products,
and emergency preparedness.
Compliance assistance-Federal.--This activity supports a range of
cooperative programs, training, and outreach that provide compliance
assistance in improving workplace safety and health, with particular
emphasis on small business. OSHA works with employers and employees
through Voluntary Protection Programs recognizing and promoting
effective safety and health management; partnerships focusing on the
development of extended cooperative relationships; and alliances
committing organizations to collaborative efforts with OSHA. Federal
agencies are assisted in implementing and improving their job safety and
health programs. Occupational safety and health training is provided at
the OSHA Training Institute and associated Education Centers throughout
the country. Compliance and technical assistance materials are prepared
and disseminated to the public through various means, including the
Internet.
State consultation grants.--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.
Training grants.--This activity supports safety and health training
grants to organizations that provide training and education and develop
educational materials for employers and employees. Grants address safety
and health education needs related to specific topics and industries
identified by the agency. The 2007 Budget eliminates funding for these
grants, and focuses on increased compliance assistance support.
Safety and health statistics.--This activity supports the
information technology infrastructure, management information, and
statistical basis for OSHA's programs and field operations. These are
provided through an integrated data network, and statistical analysis
and review. OSHA administers and maintains the recordkeeping system that
serves as the foundation for the BLS survey on occupational injuries and
illnesses and provides guidance on recordkeeping requirements to both
the public and private sectors.
Executive direction and administration.--This activity supports
executive direction, planning and evaluation, management support,
legislative liaison, interagency affairs, federal agency liaison,
administrative services, and budgeting and financial control.

Enforcement.--The Enforcement strategy in 2007 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. 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 inves
[[Page 741]]
tigations 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 evaluation and information resources (PEIR).--This activity
provides program evaluation and information technology resource
management services for the agency. Additionally, PEIR is responsible
for meeting the requirements of the Government Performance and Results
Act (GPRA) and developing MSHA's performance plan and Annual Performance
Report.
Program administration.--This activity performs general
administrative functions.

Office of Disability Employment Policy.--This office provides
leadership to eliminate employment barriers to people with disabilities.
It works within DOL and in collaboration with other Federal agencies to
develop and implement research and pilot projects that examine specific
areas of policy inquiry in employment, training, retraining, retention,
and employment support services. ODEP derives effective evidence-based
strategies from these activities, which are disseminated to other
agencies that facilitate their implementation. Research and development
activities inform future policy development direction and the office's
continual building of effective strategies to increase the workforce
participation by people with disabilities.
The Office of Disability Employment Policy brings a heightened and
permanent long-term focus on increasing employment of persons with
disabilities. The office achieves this goal using policy analysis,
development, technical assistance, dissemination of effective practices,
and employer outreach. Funding is used to develop, identify, test,
evaluate and disseminate policies and strategies designed to increase
the number of youth and adults with disabilities who enter, re-enter,
remain, and are promoted in the workforce.

Program activities.--Program activities within the Office of
Inspector General (OIG) include audit, program fraud, labor
racketeering, evaluations, inspections and special investigations of
program activities, and executive direction and management. The Office
of Audit performs audits of the Department's financial statements,
programs, activities, and systems to determine whether information is
reliable, controls are in place, resources are safeguarded, funds are
expended in a manner consistent with laws and regulations and managed
economically and efficiently, and desired program results are achieved.
The Office of Labor Racketeering and Fraud Investigations (OLRFI)
administers an investigative program to detect and deter fraud, waste
and abuse in Departmental programs; and to identify and reduce labor
racketeering and corruption in employee benefit plans, labor management
relations, and internal union affairs. The OIG also conducts DOL program
evaluations, special reviews and inspections; analyzes complaints
involving DOL programs, operations, or functions; and provides strategic
planning and Congressional liaison services. The OIG carries out
executive direction and management activities which include: management,
legal counsel, administrative support, information technology,
procurement, personnel, and financial functions. The OIG also provides
technical assistance to DOL program agencies.
In lieu of traditional single claimant cases in the FECA and UI
programs, the OIG has shifted its investigative focus to more complex
and higher-impact fraud schemes involving multiple defendants in the UI
program and in the Department's foreign labor certification programs.
These cases have yielded substantial results, however, the increased
complexity of the cases affects the number of cases the Department
expects to close in 2005 and 2006.
