            they need to get and keep good jobs, and to provide employers with skilled workers. Funds appropriated for this account generally
            are available on a July to June program year basis, and include substantial advance appropriation amounts. This account includes:
         
         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.
         
         Youth activities._Grants to support a wide range of activities and services to prepare low-income youth for academic and employment success,
            including summer and year-round jobs. The program links academic and occupational learning with youth development activities.
         
         Dislocated worker employment and training activities._Grants to provide reemployment services and retraining assistance to individuals dislocated from their employment. The Budget
            increases funding for the National Dislocated Worker Grants by $20 million to support workers affected by the national transition
            from carbon-intensive to lower carbon energy sources. Along with funding already provided through the National Dislocated
            Worker Grants, this additional money will allow States and local areas to provide reemployment, training, and supportive services
            to transitioning coal workers to help them get back to work in good jobs and careers.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.
         
         Reintegration of Ex-Offenders._Supports activities authorized under the Second Chance Act to help individuals exiting prison make a successful transition
            to community life and long-term employment through mentoring, job training, and other services. Using the authority of section
            169 of the WIOA, the Department also provides competitive grants for a range of young ex-offenders and school dropouts, particularly
            those in high-poverty, high-crime areas with similar services. The Administration intends to devote funds to test and replicate
            evidence-based strategies for young ex-offenders. The 2016 Budget includes additional resources to pilot a program for at-risk
            youth to explore careers in law enforcement. The Department of Labor will continue to coordinate closely with the Department
            of Justice and other relevant Agencies in carrying out the Ex-Offender program.
         
         Apprenticeship Grants._Activities that support Registered Apprenticeship programs at the state and local levels through a range of activities, such
            as state-specific outreach strategies, partnerships, economic development strategies, and expanded access to apprenticeship
            opportunities for under-represented populations through pre-apprenticeships and career pathways.
         
         Workforce Data Quality Initiative._Competitive grants to support the development of integrated and longitudinal data systems that integrate education and workforce
            data to provide timely and accessible information, including integrated performance information, to consumers, policymakers,
            and others.
         
         YouthBuild._Grants that impart education and occupational skills to program participants by providing them with academic training and
            occupational skills training, providing a clear path into a chosen career field.
         
         Technical Assistance._Technical assistance activities to support WIOA implementation.

         Established in 1964 as part of the Economic Opportunity Act and authorized by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act
            of 2014 (P.L. 113â128, Title 1, Subtitle C, section 141), Job Corps is the nation's largest federally-funded, primarily residential,
            training program for at-risk youth. By 2016, Job Corps will be operating centers in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the District
            of Columbia. Job Corps provides economically disadvantaged youth with academic, career technical and marketable skills to
            enter the workforce, enroll in post-secondary education, or enlist in the military.
         
         Job Corps serves and trains approximately 50,000 participants each year while emphasizing the attainment of academic credentials
            which include: a High School Diploma (HSD) or General Educational Development (GED) and career technical credentials, industry-recognized
            certifications, state licensures, and pre-apprenticeship credentials. These portable credentials provide for long-term attachment
            to the workforce and economic mobility as Job Corps graduates advance through their careers. Furthermore, these credentials
            ensure that program graduates have gained the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively compete in today's workforce.
         
         Large and small businesses, nonprofit organizations, and Native American tribes manage and operate the majority of the Job
            Corps centers through contractual agreements with the Department of Labor, while the remaining centers are operated through
            an interagency agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In 2015, Job Corps will open and fully enroll two new centers
            in New Hampshire and Wyoming, the last two States without Job Corps centers. Job Corps participants must be economically disadvantaged
            youth, ages 16â24, and meet one or more of the following criteria: basic skills deficient; a school dropout; homeless, a runaway,
            or a foster child; a parent; or in need of additional education, vocational training, or intensive counseling and related
            assistance in order to participate successfully in regular schoolwork or to secure and hold employment.
         
         The 2016 Budget continues the Administration's commitment to strengthening and reforming the Job Corps program to improve
            students' outcomes. These reforms include identifying and replicating the practices of high-performing centers; adopting cost
            saving reforms; and providing information to the public about each Job Corps center's performance in a transparent way. The
            Budget proposes funds to pilot a different model to serve younger students, a population for whom the program has not been
            as effective. In addition, the Budget builds on the resources provided in the 2015 Omnibus for financial and contractual oversight.
            We remain committed to strengthening the oversight of the program. These changes will allow the program to continue to provide
            high-quality services to disadvantaged youth while maintaining strong internal controls and ensuring that contracts are procured
            at the lowest risk and the best value to the Federal Government.

         Paid Leave Partnership Initiative._The Budget will include a mandatory proposal to support as many as five States that wish to launch paid leave programs, following
               the example of California, New Jersey, and Rhode Island. States would be able to apply for competitive grants to cover start-up
               and ongoing administrative costs as well as 50 percent of benefit costs for three years. The grants could be used to cover
               family, parental, and medical leave programs that provide up to 12 weeks of benefits.

         Community Service Employment for Older Americans (CSEOA), authorized by Title V of the Older Americans Act as amended in 2006
            (P.L. 109â365), is a federally-sponsored community service employment and training program for unemployed low-income individuals,
            ages 55 and older. The program, known as the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP), offers participants work-based
            community service training at non-profit or governmental agencies, so that they can gain on-the-job experience and prepare
            to enter or re-enter the workforce. The 2016 CSEOA budget reforms SCSEP by awarding more competitive grants, adjusting income
            eligibility requirements to serve those most in need, and promoting on-the-job training (OJT) models, including OJT at for-profit
            entities, through demonstration grants and flexibility for existing grantees in spending training funds on OJT activities.

         The Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Community College and Career Training program, which received appropriations in the
            Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (Section 1501 of P.L. 111â152, 124 Stat.1070), provided $500 million
            annually in fiscal years 2011â2014 for competitive grants to eligible institutions of higher education. The program aims to
            improve education and employment outcomes for community college and other students, helping more Americans prepare to succeed
            in growing occupations. Funding allows for expansion and improvement of education and training programs that can be completed
            in 2 years or less, result in skills and credentials necessary for high-wage, in-demand jobs, and are suited for workers who
            are eligible for training under the TAA for Workers program. Grants support institutions that use evidence to design program
            strategies, are committed to using data for continuous improvement, and facilitate evaluation that can build evidence about
            effective practices. The Department is implementing this program in cooperation with the Department of Education.

         The Budget includes a legislative proposal to reauthorize the TAA program under legislation similar to the 2011 Program with
            features of the 2009 Program. It assumes that new reauthorization legislation will be effective in 2016. In addition to the
            legislative proposal, the Budget includes baseline funding for the Reversion 2014 version of the TAA program in 2016 in the
            event legislation reauthorizing the program is not enacted. $986,000,000 is sufficient to fund the legislative proposal in
            2016 under reauthorization.

         Unemployment compensation._State administration amounts provide administrative grants to State agencies that pay unemployment compensation to eligible
            workers and collect State unemployment taxes from employers. These agencies also pay unemployment benefits to former Federal
            personnel and ex-servicemembers as well as trade readjustment allowances 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 performance management system, UI Performs. The purpose is to effect continuous
            improvement in State performance and implement activities designed to 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
            non-State entities. A workload contingency reserve is included in State administration to meet increases in the costs of administering
            the program resulting from increases in the number of unemployment claims filed and paid. The appropriation automatically
            provides additional funds whenever unemployment claims workloads increase above levels specified in the appropriations language.

            employment service activities are financed by grants provided by formula to States. Funding allotments are provided annually
            on a Program Year basis beginning July 1 and ending June 30 of 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. States also receive funding under
               this activity for administration of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit, as well for amortization payments for those States that
               had independent retirement plans prior to 1980 in their State employment service agencies.

            certification as a first step in the multi-agency process required to hire a foreign worker to fill critical permanent or
            temporary vacancies. Major programs include the permanent, H-2A temporary agricultural, H-2B temporary non-agricultural, and
            H-1B temporary highly skilled worker visas. The account is divided into Federal and State activities.
         
         Federal Administration._Federal Administration provides leadership, policy, budget, program operations including staffing (Federal and contractors),
            information technology, three national processing center facilities, and operational direction to Federal activities supporting
            the effective and efficient administration of foreign labor certification programs.
         
         State grants._Provides grants to State workforce agencies in 54 States and U.S. territories funding employment-related activities required
            for the administration of Federal foreign labor certification programs. Includes State Workforce Agency posting and circulation
            of job orders and other assistance to employers in the recruitment of U.S. workers, processing of employer requests for prevailing
            wage determinations for the permanent and temporary programs, State safety inspection of housing provided by employers to
            workers, and State development of prevailing wage and prevailing practice surveys used to set wages and standards in a defined
            geographic area.
         
         American Job Centers._These funds are used to support the joint Federal-State efforts to improve the comprehensive American Job Center system authorized
            under WIOA. This system provides workers and employers with quick and easy access to a wide array of enhanced career development
            and labor market information services. A portion of these funds supports a joint initiative between the Employment and Training
            Administration and the Office of Disability Employment Policy to improve the accessibility and accountability of the public
            workforce development system for individuals with disabilities.
         
         National Agricultural Workers Survey fee._The Department of Labor conducts the National Agricultural Workers Survey (NAWS), which collects information annually about
            the demographic, employment, and health characteristics of the U.S. crop labor force. The information is obtained directly
            from farm workers through face-to-face interviews.

         The funding request for in-person reemployment services and eligibility assessments (REA/RES) for unemployment compensation
            claimants builds upon the success of a number of States in reducing improper payments and speeding reemployment using these
            assessments. This proposal is designed to reduce long-term unemployment by providing reemployment services and eligibility
            assessments to the top one-third of regular UI claimants identified as most likely to exhaust their unemployment insurance
            (UI) benefits. Because most unemployment claims are now filed by telephone or on the internet, in-person assessments conducted
            in American Job Centers can help determine a claimant's continued eligibility for benefits and the adequacy of his/her work
            search, verify the identity of beneficiaries where there is suspicion of possible identity theft, and provide in-person reemployment
            services designed to help claimants return to work more quickly. These reemployment services may include, but are not limited
            to: the provision of labor market and career information; the development of reemployment and work search plans; orientation
            to services available through American Job Centers; and the provision of staff-assisted reemployment services, including skills
            assessments, career counseling, job matching and referrals, job search assistance workshops and referrals to training as appropriate.
            The $180.9 million requested for REA/RES is estimated to provide benefit savings of $287 million.
         
         The proposal would also provide REA/RES services to unemployed veterans recently separated from the military and receiving
            unemployment benefits under the Unemployment Compensation for Ex-servicemembers (UCX) program. An estimated $7.5 million of
            the total requested will provide REA/RES services to 100 percent of UCX claimants and identify the factors impeding their
            reemployment; this UCX focus is estimated to provide benefit savings of $34 million. To ensure full funding of reemployment
            services and eligibility assessments, the Administration proposes to protect a portion of the funding requested for these
            activities in the appropriations process through a cap adjustment, a mechanism that has been used by past Administrations
            and Congresses. Under a cap adjustment appropriations for a specific program can exceed discretionary budget caps if savings
            can be demonstrated. A similar reemployment and eligibility assessment (REA) program was partially funded under an allocation
            adjustment in fiscal years 2009, 2010 and 2011 in recognition of its potential for savings. Given the demonstrated savings
            that an integrated approach to reemployment services and UI eligibility assessments can produce, the 2016 Budget proposes
            to amend the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 to adjust the discretionary spending limits for administrative
            program integrity activities at DOL. These adjustments would be similar in nature to those enacted for the Social Security
            Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. See additional
            discussion in the "Budget Process" chapter in the Analytical Perspectives volume.

         The Job-Driven Training Proposals support initiatives that address the problem of long-term unemployment, provide new employment
            opportunities for low-income and unemployed workers, and build the skills of American workers. These proposals include:
         
         High-Growth Sector Training & Credentialing Grants.âAn infusion of $16 billion over 10 years to fund the regional partnerships necessary to create strong training programs
            aligned to in-demand jobs and provide funding to give more people access to counseling and training. This proposal is paired
            with a $400 million discretionary increase for the Employment Service, which will provide access to high-quality reemployment
            services to 2 million unemployed workers and ensure that training meets employers' skill needs. The grants also provide more
            resources for training, which due to resource limitations is currently provided to only a small share of people who come into
            American Job Centers.
         
         Apprenticeship Training Fund.âProvides $2 billion over 4 years to help more employers provide high-quality on-the-job training through apprenticeship;
            to equip states and regions with the expertise and resources to assist employers in creating or expanding apprenticeships;
            and to link apprenticeships with pathways to higher education. Through this one time investment, the President calls on Congress
            to expand quality apprenticeships with the goal of doubling Registered Apprenticeships across the country over the next five
            years.
         
         Connecting for Opportunity.âA two-pronged, one-time $3 billion investment over four years to invest in year-round job opportunities for youth and to
            help reengage disconnected youth. $1.5 billion will be provided by formula to support summer and year-round jobs and an additional
            $1.5 billion will be used to initiate a competitive grant program to municipalities to reengage disconnected youth and create
            educational and workforce pathways for them.

         This account provides for general fund financing of extended unemployment benefit programs under certain statutes. It is also
            the mechanism used to make general fund reimbursements for some or all of the benefits and administrative costs incurred for
            temporary Federal programs. These funds are transferred from the Payments to the Unemployment Trust Fund account to a receipt
            account in the Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF) so that resources may be transferred to the Employment Security Administration
            Account in the UTF for administrative costs or to the Extended Unemployment Compensation Account in the UTF for benefit costs.

         Short Time Compensation (STC), also known as work sharing, is a layoff aversion strategy that enables workers to remain employed
            and employers to retain their trained staff during times of reduced business activity. The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job
            Creation Act of 2012 codified and expanded the definition of STC. Under the STC program, workers receive a percentage of the
            unemployment benefits they would have received if totally unemployed based upon the percentage of reduction in their hours
            of work. States that had been operating an STC program before enactment of the Act had two and a half years to amend their
            laws to conform to the new definition (the deadline for conformity was August 2014). As an incentive for states to enact state
            STC programs and promote the use of STC, the Act provides for 100 percent reimbursement of STC benefit costs paid under state
            law for up to 156 weeks, or three years (reimbursement is subject to sequestration). Grant funding was also available to states
            whose permanent STC laws meet the new Federal definition (the application deadline was December 31, 2014).

         This account makes available funding for repayable advances (loans) to two accounts in the Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF):
            the Extended Unemployment Compensation Account (EUCA) which pays the Federal share of extended unemployment benefits, and
            the Federal Unemployment Account (FUA) which makes loans to States to fund unemployment benefits. In addition, the account
            has provided repayable advances to the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) when its balances proved insufficient to make
            payments from that account. The BLDTF now has authority to borrow directly from the Treasury under the trust fund debt restructuring
            provisions of Public Law 110â343. Repayable advances are shown as borrowing authority within the UTF or the BLDTF, and they
            do not appear as budget authority or outlays in the Advances to the Unemployment Trust Fund and Other Funds account.
         
         This account also makes available funding as needed for nonrepayable advances to the Federal Employees Compensation Account
            (FECA) to pay the costs of unemployment compensation for former Federal employees and ex-servicemembers, and to the Federal
            Unemployment and Benefits and Allowances (FUBA) account to pay the costs of benefits and services under the Trade Adjustment
            Assistance for Workers (TAA) program. These advances are shown as budget authority and outlays in the Advances account. The
            2014 appropriations language for this included new authority for nonrepayable advances to the revolving fund for the Employment
            Security Administration Account (ESAA) in the Unemployment Trust Fund. In turn, this revolving fund may provide repayable,
            interest-bearing advances to the ESAA account if it runs short of funds, and the borrowing authority will enable ESAA to cover
            its obligations despite seasonal variations in the account's receipts.
         
         Advances were needed for the FUA and EUCA accounts in fiscal year 2014, and the Department estimates that no advances will
            be necessary in 2015 and 2016. Detail on the nonrepayable advances is provided above; detail on the repayable advances is
            shown separately in the UTF account.
         
         To address the potential need for significant, and somewhat unpredictable advances to various accounts, the Congress appropriates
            such sums as necessary for advances to all of the potential recipient accounts. The fiscal year 2016 request continues this
            authority.

         The 2016 Budget requests $35 million for a State Paid Leave Fund to assist States in setting up paid leave programs by providing
            technical assistance and other support. This proposal is paired with a mandatory proposal that would provide as many as five
            States with with funds for the initial set-up and benefit costs for three years.
         
      
         Advances to the Employment Security Administration Account of the Unemployment Trust Fund                                
            
         
         This account is a revolving fund that is available to make advances to the Employment Security Administration Account (ESAA)
            in the Unemployment Trust Fund under the provisions of section 901(e) of the Social Security Act. These repayable, interest-bearing
            advances permit financing of the Federal and State administrative costs of employment security programs when the balance in
            ESAA is insufficient. The borrowing authority also enables ESAA to cover its obligations despite seasonal variations in the
            account's receipts.

         The financial transactions of the Federal-State and railroad unemployment insurance systems are made through the Unemployment
            Trust Fund (UTF). All State and Federal unemployment tax receipts are deposited into the UTF and invested in Government securities
            until needed for benefit payments or administrative expenses. State payroll taxes pay for all regular State unemployment benefits.
            The Federal unemployment tax (FUTA) pays the costs of Federal and State administration of the unemployment insurance system,
            veterans' employment services, surveys of wages and employment, and about 97 percent of the costs of the Employment Service.
            In addition, the Federal tax pays for certain extended benefit payments. During periods of high State unemployment, there
            is a stand-by program of extended benefits (EB), financed one-half by State unemployment taxes and one-half by the FUTA payroll
            tax. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Public Law 111â5), and subsequent legislation, temporarily made EB 100 percent
            federally financed. Temporary Federal EB programs, including the recently expired Emergency Unemployment Compensation program,
            are also funded from the Unemployment Trust Fund, either by the Federal tax or by reimbursement from Federal general revenues.
            The UTF also provides repayable advances (loans) to the States when the balances in their individual State accounts are insufficient
            to pay benefits. Federal accounts in the UTF may receive repayable advances from the general fund when they have insufficient
            balances to make advances to States, pay the Federal share of extended unemployment benefits, or pay for State and Federal
            administrative costs.
         
         The Federal Employees Compensation Account (FECA) in the Trust Fund provides funds to States for unemployment compensation
            benefits paid to eligible former Federal civilian personnel, Postal Service employees, and ex-servicemembers. In turn, the
            various Federal agencies reimburse FECA for benefits paid to their former employees. FECA is not funded out of Federal unemployment
            taxes. Any additional resources necessary to assure that the FECA account can make the required payments to States are provided
            from the Advances to the Unemployment Trust Fund and Other Funds appropriation.
         
         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 a tax on railroad payrolls are deposited into the Trust Fund
            to meet expenses.
         
         Legislative proposals to strengthen the unemployment insurance safety net._The recent economic downturn continues to severely test the adequacy of States' unemployment insurance (UI) financial systems,
            forcing some States to borrow to continue paying benefits. Because States are struggling to improve the financial status of
            their UTF accounts, the 2016 Budget will include a solvency proposal that will increase the FUTA taxable wage base to $40,000
            in 2017 and index it to average wages thereafter. States with lower wage bases will need to adjust their UI tax structures.
            The effective FUTA tax rate will be returned to 0.8 percent in calendar year 2016, to strengthen the solvency of the Federal
            trust fund accounts, then lowered to 0.165 percent in 2017 when the wage base is increased. Beginning in 2017, States would
            be required to have a minimum tax equivalent to 0.175 percent of the FUTA wage base. This legislative package will help put
            State UI systems on a firmer financial footing for the future. The proposal would also replace the current EB program with
            a more responsive one and require EB claimants to receive Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessments (REA/RES). For
            States paying up to 26 weeks of regular benefits, the EB program would be 100 percent federally funded. Other States would
            pay 50 percent of the EB benefit costs. A UI Modernization component of the proposal would incentivize States to improve claimant
            connections to work and expand eligibility provisions in a manner similar to UI Modernization that was part of the American
            Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Additional proposals designed to assist in the reemployment of laid-off workers, reduce program
            costs and improper payments, and avoid overlapping payments of UI and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) will be
            submitted. To address and prevent long-term unemployment, a permanent REA/RES program for claimants of the regular UI program
            is being proposed. State participation in the REA/RES program funded in the 2015 Omnibus is voluntary. Another proposal would
            mandate States' use of the State Information Data Exchange System (SIDES), an electronic tool for requesting and receiving
            information from employers regarding a claimant's separation which is needed to determine eligibility. Use of SIDES will allow
            State agencies, employers, and third-party administrators to reduce costs, improve the timeliness and accuracy of UI claims
            processing, and reduce improper payments. Another proposal designed to reduce improper payments to incarcerated individuals
            would require States to cross-match UI claimants with the Prisoner Update Processing System database housed at the Social
            Security Administration. To avoid overlapping payments of UI and SSDI, it is proposed that an individual's SSDI benefits would
            be reduced dollar for dollar in any month in which that person also receives a State or Federal UI benefit. This proposal
            would eliminate duplicative payments covering the same period a beneficiary is out of the work, while still providing a base
            level of support. These proposals will impact several receipt accounts that feed into the UTF, including FUTA deposits and
            deposits of State unemployment taxes into the UTF.

         1 In 2016, as the agency continues its efforts to improve the quality and impact of its investigations, it will place special
         emphasis on the timely conduct and referral of cases, as well as the impact of its investigations (e.g., the amounts recovered
         for plan participants and beneficiaries). While the agency will continue to report the total number of investigations conducted,
         it will no longer make projections of the raw number of investigations.2 Reflects over $392 million in participant benefit recoveries, nearly $163 million in plan assets restored, and over $6 million
         in participant health plan recoveries.3 New enforcement measures that reflect the emphasis shift to timely conduct and referral of cases for litigation or prosecution
         (excludes Major Cases).4 Includes Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement (MEWA) registration.5 Reflects a revision of original 2015 estimates based on enacted amounts pursuant to P.L. 113â235.

         The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation is a Federal corporation established under the Employee Retirement Income Security
            Act of 1974, as amended. It guarantees payment of basic pension benefits earned by more than 41 million of America's workers
            and retirees. PBGC administers two separate insurance programs. The single-employer program protects about 31 million workers
            and retirees in over 22,000 pension plans. The multiemployer program protects about 10 million workers and retirees in about
            1,400 pension plans. The Corporation receives no funds from general tax revenues. Operations are financed by insurance premiums
            paid by companies that sponsor defined benefit pension plans, investment income, and assets from terminated plans.
         
         PBGC is requesting $431,799,000 in spending authority for administrative purposes in 2016. The change includes a restoration
            of the 2015 sequestration cuts, as well as increases to support the modernization of the Integrated Present Value of Future
            Benefits system, IT security improvements, a pilot program for a smaller manager's investment program and funds for the Office
            of Inspector General for additional Financial Statement Audit work.
         
         The 2016 Budget also proposes to give the PBGC Board the authority to adjust premiums in both its single-employer and multiemployer
            programs and directs PBGC to take into account the risks that different sponsors pose. This proposal is estimated to save
            $19 billion over the next decade, a decrease of $1 billion from a similar proposal presented for 2015 to reflect the multiemployer
            premium revenue increases included in the Consolidated and Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015. Premium increases would
            be split between the single-employer and multiemployer programs proportionately based on the size of the deficit in each program
            after making adjustments for the expected long-term effects of the recent law.
         
         Plan Preservation Efforts: PBGC tries, first, to preserve plans and keep pension promises in the hands of the employers who make them. When companies
            undertake major transactions that might threaten their ability to pay pensions, PBGC negotiates protections for their pension
            plans. Similarly, when major layoffs or plant closures threaten a plan's viability, PBGC steps in to negotiate protection
            for the plan. In 2014, PBGC:
         
         âHelped to protect 163,000 people by encouraging companies to keep their plans when they emerged from bankruptcy
         âNegotiated $464,000,000 in financial assurance to protect 126,000 people in plans at risk from corporate transactions
         âNegotiated $34,000,000 in financial assurance to protect almost 6,000 people whose companies downsized
         âWorked with media, Congressional staff, retiree groups, unions, and pension advocacy groups to help thousands to understand
            the lifetime consequences of accepting one-time cash payments instead of their pensions.
         
         Stepping in When Plans Fail: When plans do fail, PBGC steps in to ensure that guaranteed benefits continue to be paid. Over the years, PBGC has become
            responsible for more than 1,500,000 people in more than 4,600 failed plans. In 2014, PBGC:
         
         âPaid $5,500,000,000 to nearly 813,000 retirees in more then 4,600 failed single-employer plans (an additional 595,000 workers
            will receive timely and accurate benefits when they retire)
         
         âAssumed responsibility for almost 53,000 more people in 97 trusteed single-employer plans
         PROGRAM ACTIVITIES:
         Single-employer benefit payments.âThe single-employer program protects about 31 million workers and retirees in about 22,000 pension plans. Underthis program,
            a company may voluntarily seek to terminate its plan, or PBGC may seek termination. The PBGC must seeks termination when a
            plan cannot pay current benefits. A plan that cannot pay all benefits maybe ended by a "distress" termination, but only if
            the employer meets tests proving severe financial distress, such as proving that continuing the plan would force the company
            to go out of business. If a terminated plan cannot pay at least the PBGC-guaranteed level of benefits, PBGC uses its funds
            to ensure that guaranteed benefits are paid. A sponsor may terminate a plan in a "standard" termination only if plan assets
            are sufficient to pay all benefits. In a standard termination, the sponsor closes out the plan by purchasing annuities from
            an insurance company or by paying benefits in a lump sum. After a standard termination, the PBGC guarantee ends.
         
         Multiemployer financial assistance.âThe multiemployer insurance program protects about 10 million workers and retirees in about 1,400 pension plans. Multiemployer
            pension plans are maintained under collective bargaining agreements involving unrelated employers, generally of 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 (a loan to the plan) to continue paying guaranteed benefits.
         
         Investment management fees.âPBGC contracts with professional financial services corporations to manage Trust Fund assets in accordance with an investment
            strategy approved by PBGC's Board of Directors. Investment management fees are determined by the amount of assets under management.
            They are a direct, programmatic expense required to maintain the Trust Fund which supports single-employer benefit payments.
            PBGC expects to pay $103,906,000 in investment management fees in 2016.
         
         ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIVITIES:
         PBGC's administrative activities comprise all expenditures and operations that support:
         âDirect benefit payments to pension plan participants
         âDirect financial assistance to distressed multiemployer pension plans
         âInvestment management fees
         These operations include premium collections, purchase of U.S. Treasury securities using premium receipts, pre-trusteeship
            work, efforts to preserve pension plans, recovery of assets from former plan sponsors, and pension insurance program protection
            activities. This area also covers the expenditures that support activities related to trusteeship; plan asset management (excluding
            investment management fees) and trust accounting; as well as benefit payments and administration services. Finally, this area
            includes the administrative functions covering administrative and legal support, information technology infrastructure, and
            other shared program support for both PBGC's insurance and plan termination activities. These funds support the operations
            of the Inspector General and funding to support the required functions and efforts of the office, including training and participation
            in Council of the Inspector Generals on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) activities.

         In 2010, the Department of Labor abolished the Employment Standards Administration (ESA) to streamline administration of the
            programs. As the Department was reinvigorating its enforcement of worker protection laws, this reorganization supported the
            Administration's Worker Protection efforts by eliminating redundant management efforts by elevating program issues directly
            to the Secretarial level. It also reflected the importance of these programs and increased enforcement supporting the Secretary's
            Worker Protection goals. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012 (P.L. 112â74) accepted the Administration's proposal to
            replace the appropriation for the Employment and Standards Administration by four individual appropriations for the component
            agencies and offices previously under the heading "Employment Standards Administration Salaries and Expenses." In the 2014
            Budget, funding was requested separately for the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs, Wage and Hour Division, Office
            of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, and Office of Labor-Management Standards.

         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 2016, 113,000 injured
            Federal workers or their survivors are projected to file claims; 47,000 are projected to 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.

         Longshore and harbor workers' compensation benefits._Under the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, as amended, the Federal Government pays from direct appropriations
            one-half of the increased benefits provided by the amendments for persons on the rolls prior to 1972. The remainder is provided
            from the special fund which is financed by private employers, and is assessed at the beginning of each calendar year for their
            proportionate share of these payments.

         The 2016 Budget incorporates longstanding Government Accountability Office, Congressional Budget Office, and Labor Inspector
            General recommendations, amending FECA to convert prospectively retirement-age beneficiaries to a retirement annuity-level
            benefit, establish an up-front waiting period for benefits for all beneficiaries, permit the Department of Labor to recapture
            compensation costs from responsible third parties, authorize the Department to cross-match FECA records with Social Security
            records to reduce improper payments, and make other changes to improve and update FECA. The 2016 reform legislation will also
            include a provision to allow the Department to add an administrative surcharge to the amount billed to Federal agencies for
            their FECA compensation costs, thereby shifting FECA administrative costs from the Department to Federal agencies in proportion
            to their usage. If enacted, the surcharge would not be applied until 2017 to give agencies an opportunity to plan for the
            change. The legislation would produce 10-year savings of more than $336 million in the Special Benefits Fund, and more than
            $368 million on a Government-wide basis over the same period.

         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 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. 108â767) amended EEOICPA, giving DOL responsibility for
               a new program (Part E) to pay workers' compensation benefits to DOE contractors and their families for illness and death arising
               from toxic exposures in DOE's nuclear weapons complex. This 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 EEOICPA 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 (DOL) is responsible for claims
            adjudication, and award and payment of compensation and medical benefits. DOL's 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, and 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. 108â767) amended EEOICPA, giving DOL responsibility for
               a new program (Part E) to pay workers' compensation benefits to DOE contractors and their families for illness and death arising
               from toxic exposures in DOE's nuclear weapons complex. This 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. 108â767.

         Title IV of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act authorizes monthly benefits to coal miners disabled due to 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. 107â275 transferred Part B claims processing and payment operations from SSA to the Department of Labor's 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 (FECA). On December 31,
            1999, the Commission was dissolved as set forth in the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977; however, 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 Federal Employees'
            Compensation Act (FECA) program from the Commission to the Department of Labor, effective January 1, 1989.

            Revenue Act of 1981, as amended by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, in the form of an excise tax

            jointly by the Secretaries of Labor, Treasury, and Health and Human Services. The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of
            2008, enacted on October 3, 2008, authorized restructuring of the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) debt by (1) extending
            the current coal excise tax rates of $1.10 per ton on underground-mined coal and $0.55 per ton on surface-mined coal until
            December 31, 2018; (2) providing a one-time appropriation for the BLDTF to repay the market value of parts of the outstanding
            repayable advances and accrued interest; and (3) refinancing the remainder of the outstanding debt through the issuance of
            zero-coupon bonds, to be retired using the BLDTF's annual operating surplus until all of its remaining obligations have been
            paid.
         
         The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) of 2010 reinstated two provisions of the Black Lung Benefits Act that
            had been removed in 1981 for claims filed on or after January 1, 1982. These provisions include: automatic entitlement to
            benefits for survivors of miners who had been awarded benefits at the time of their death and a presumption that a miner who
            has at least 15 years of qualifying coal mine employment and has a totally disabling lung condition has pneumoconiosis even
            in the absence of a negative x-ray.

         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, andâpursuant to an annual assessment of the industryâfor the general expenses
            of the fund under the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (LHWCA), 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 LHWCA 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.

         The Wage and Hour Division enforces the minimum wage, overtime, child labor, and other employment standards under the Fair
            Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA), the Family and Medical Leave
            Act (FMLA), certain provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the wage garnishment provisions in Title III
            of the Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA), and the Employee Polygraph Protection Act (EPPA). The Division also determines
            prevailing wages and enforces employment standards under various Government contract wage standards, including the Davis-Bacon
            and Related Acts (DBRA) and the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (SCA). Collectively, these labor standards cover most
            private, state, and local government employment. They protect over 135,000,000 workers in more than 7,300,000 establishments
            throughout the United States and its territories.

         The Wage and Hour Division has traditionally had responsibility for enforcing certain worker protections provisions of the
            Immigration and Nationality Act, specifically the H-2A and H-1B temporary non-immigrant foreign worker programs. Pursuant
            to an Interagency Agreement (IAA) between the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Department of Labor
            (DOL) and section 214(c)(14)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. 1184(c)(14)(B), DOL and WHD have been
            delegated the enforcement authority located at section 214(c)(14)(A)(i) of the INA, 8 U.S.C. 1184(c)(14)(A)(i) for enforcing
            the H-2B temporary non-immigrant foreign worker program. Under section 524 of H.R. 3288, the Secretary of Labor may use one-third
            of the H-1B and L Fraud Protection and Detection fee account for enforcement of these temporary worker program provisions
            and for related enforcement activities.

         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 100,000 work-sites and a total workforce of 12 million persons. OFCCP monitors contractors'
            compliance through compliance evaluations and reporting requirements. Specifically, OFCCP will complete 4,290 compliance evaluations
            in 2016, with a focus on both supply and service construction reviews. OFCCP will continue to shift its outreach strategy
            from being contractor-centric to worker-focused, which will strengthen its enforcement capacity in the process. In addition,
            the agency will also ensure that contractors and subcontractors are provided linkages to recruitment sources for hiring and
            advancement of minorities, women, protected veterans, and individuals with disabilities.

         The Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) receives and discloses reports of unions, union officers and employees, employers,
            labor consultants and others in accordance with the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA), including union
            financial reports and employer and consultant activity 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 LMRDA; and administers
            the statutory program to certify employee protection provisions under various Federally-sponsored transportation programs.
            In 2016, OLMS plans continued efforts to advance transparency and financial integrity protections, primarily through audits,
            investigations and compliance assistance efforts. OLMS will ensure that Federally sponsored transportation grants are processed
            in a timely manner providing requisite protection to employees against adverse impacts as a result of federal assistance.

         Safety and Health Standards._This activity provides for the protection of workers' safety and health through development, promulgation, review, and evaluation
            of occupational safety and health standards and guidance, as specified under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970
            (OSH Act). 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. This activity also ensures, through the SBREFA process, that small business concerns
            are taken into account in the process of developing standards.
         
         Federal Enforcement._This activity provides for ensuring the protection of employees through the enforcement of workplace standards promulgated
            under the OSH Act, through the physical inspection of worksites, and by providing guidance on how to comply with the requirements
            of OSHA standards. Enforcement programs are targeted to the investigation of imminent danger situations and employee complaints,
            investigation of fatal and catastrophic accidents, programmed inspections of firms with injury and illness rates that are
            above the national average, and special emphasis inspections for serious safety and health hazards. OSHA's enforcement strategy
            ranges from a selective targeting of inspections and related compliance activities to specific high hazard industries and
            worksites.
         
         Whistleblower Programs._This activity provides for the enforcement of Section 11(c) of the OSH Act, which prohibits any person from discharging or
            in any manner retaliating against any employee because the employee has exercised rights under the Act, including complaining
            to OSHA and seeking an OSHA inspection, participating in an OSHA inspection, and participating or testifying in any proceeding
            related to an OSHA inspection. This activity also includes the administration of twenty-one other whistleblower protection
            statutes, protecting employees who report violations of various airline, commercial motor carrier, consumer product, environmental,
            financial reform, food safety, health care reform, nuclear, pipeline, public transportation agency, railroad, maritime, automotive
            manufacturing, and securities laws.
         
         State Programs._This activity supports states in assuming responsibility for administering occupational safety and health programs under State
            Plans approved by the Secretary. Under section 23 of the OSH Act, grants matching up to 50 percent of total program costs
            are made to States that meet the Act's criteria for establishing and implementing State programs that are at least as effective
            as the Federal OSHA program. State programs, like Federal OSHA, 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. This activity also provides support for OSHA's emergency response activities, including responses
            to oil spills, hurricanes, tornados, and other natural or man-made disasters.
         
         Federal Compliance Assistance._This activity supports a range of training, outreach, and cooperative programs that provide compliance assistance for employers
            and employees in protecting workers' safety and health, with particular emphasis on small business, temporary, immigrant,
            and other high-risk and hard-to-reach workers. OSHA works with employers and employees through Voluntary Protection Programs
            that recognize and promote effective safety and health management partnerships that focus on the development of extended cooperative
            relationships and alliances that commit organizations to collaborative efforts with OSHA. This activity also provides assistance
            to federal agencies in implementing and improving their job safety and health programs. Occupational safety and health training
            is provided at the OSHA Training Institute and affiliated Education Centers throughout the country. Compliance and technical
            assistance materials are prepared and disseminated to the public through various means, including the Internet.
         
         State Compliance Assistance: Consultation Grants._This activity supports 90 percent federally funded cooperative agreements with designated State agencies to provide free on-site
            consultation to small and medium-sized 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.
         
         Compliance Assistance: Training Grants._This activity supports safety and health grants to organizations that provide face-to-face training, education, technical
            assistance, and develop educational materials for employers and employees. These grants address safety and health education
            needs related to hard-to-reach workers and specific high-risk topics and industries identified by the agency.
         
         Safety and Health Statistics._This activity supports information technology infrastructure, management of information, OSHA's webpage and web-based compliance
            assistance services, and the 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 2016 will be an integrated approach toward the prevention of mining accidents, injuries, and occupational
            illnesses. This includes inspection of mines and other activities as mandated by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of
            1977 (Mine Act), as amended by the Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006 (MINER Act), special emphasis initiatives
            that focus on persistent safety and health hazards, promulgation of federal mine safety and health standards, investigation
            of serious accidents, and on-site education and training. The desired outcome of these enforcement efforts is to prevent death,
            disease, and injury from mining and promote safe and healthful workplaces for the Nation's miners. In 2016, MSHA is proposing
            appropriations language that would provide the agency with additional flexibility to internally reallocate funding to ensure
            the enforcement programs have the necessary resources to effectively conduct mandated inspections or investigations.
         
         Office of Assessments, Accountability, Special Enforcement and Investigations._ This activity assesses and collects civil monetary penalties for violations of safety and health standards and manages MSHA's
            accountability, special enforcement, and investigation functions.
         
          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 Mine Health and Safety Academy for MSHA personnel, other governmental personnel, and the mining
            industry.
         
          Technical Support._This activity applies engineering and scientific expertise through field and laboratory forensic investigations to resolve
            technical problems associated with implementing the Mine Act and the MINER 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 mine accidents.
         
          Program Evaluation and Information Resources (PEIR)._This activity provides program evaluation and information technology resource management services for the agency.
         
          Program Administration._This activity performs general administrative functions and is responsible for meeting performance requirements and developing
            MSHA's performance plan and Annual Performance Report.

         Executive Direction and Staff Services._Provides agency-wide policy and management direction, including all centralized support services in the administrative, publications,
            information technology, field operations, and statistical methods research areas.The President is again asking the Congress to revive an authority enabling him to submit fast-track proposals to reorganize
               or consolidate Federal programs and agencies in order to reduce the size of Government or cut costs. The Budget includes a
               variety of proposed reforms across government designed to drive efficiency and accountability, prevent duplication, and make
               government work better and smarter for the American people. One of these reorganizations the President would propose with
               this authority reiterates his previous proposal to consolidate Federal business and trade programs into one more efficient
               and effective department dedicated to promoting U.S. competitiveness, exports, and American businesses and jobs. The proposal
               would integrate the six Federal agencies that focus primarily on business and trade, along with other related programs. These
               include the Department of Commerce's core business and trade functions, the Small Business Administration, the Office of the
               U.S. Trade Representative, the Export-Import Bank, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation, and the U.S. Trade and Development
               Agency, as well as rural business programs at the Department of Agriculture, Treasury's Community Development Financial Institution
               Program, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the statistical agency at the National Science Foundation. To strengthen the
               new department's focus on business and economic growth, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration would be consolidated
               into the Department of Interior, strengthening stewardship and conservation efforts and enhancing scientific resources. The
               Budget schedules for these agencies and programs, including those for the Bureau of Labor Statistics, continue to reflect
               them in their current alignment.

         The Office of Inspector General (OIG) conducts audits, investigations, and evaluations that improve the effectiveness, efficiency,
            and economy of departmental programs and operations. It addresses DOL program fraud and labor racketeering in the American
            workplace, provides technical assistance to DOL program agencies, and advice to the Secretary and the Congress on how to attain
            the highest possible program performance. The Office of Audit performs audits of the Department's financial statements, programs,
            activities, and systems to determine whether information is reliable, controls are effective, and resources are safeguarded.
            It also ensures funds are expended in a manner consistent with laws and regulations, and with achieving the desired program
            results. The Office of Labor Racketeering and Fraud Investigations conducts investigations to detect and deter fraud, waste,
            and abuse in departmental programs. It also identifies and reduces labor racketeering and corruption in employee benefit plans,
            labor management relations, and internal union affairs.

         Jobs for Veterans State grants._The Jobs for Veterans Act (JVA) of 2002 provides the foundation for this budget activity. The JVA requires the Veterans' Employment
            and Training Service (VETS) to act on behalf of the Secretary in the promulgation of policies and regulations that ensure
            maximum employment and training opportunities for veterans and priority of service for veterans (38 U.S.C. 4215) within the
            State workforce delivery system for employment and training programs funded in whole or in part by the U.S. Department of
            Labor. Under the JVA, resources are allocated to States to support Disabled Veterans' Outreach Program (DVOP) specialists
            and Local Veterans' Employment Representatives (LVERs).Disabled Veterans' Outreach Program specialists (38 U.S.C. 4103A) provide intensive services to meet the employment needs
               of eligible veterans. DVOP specialists place maximum emphasis on helping economically or educationally disadvantaged veterans.Local Veterans' Employment Representatives (38 U.S.C. 4104) conduct outreach to employers, employer associations, and business
               groups to promote the advantages of hiring veterans. LVERs also facilitate employment, training, and placement services provided
               to veterans under the applicable State employment service delivery system, including American Job Centers by educating all
               workforce partner staff on current employment initiatives and programs for veterans. In addition, each LVER provides reports
               to the manager of the State employment service delivery system and to the State Director for Veterans Employment and Training
               (38 U.S.C. 4103) regarding the State's compliance with Federal law and regulations with respect to special services and priorities
               for eligible veterans.
         Transition Assistance Program._This program provides employment workshops for departing service members in the continental U.S. and at major overseas installations.
            VETS coordinates with the Departments of Defense, Veterans Affairs, and Homeland Security to provide transition services to
            military service members separating from active duty. TAP is implemented worldwide and provides labor-market and employment-related
            information and other services to separating service members and their spouses. The goal of TAP is to expedite and facilitate
            the transition from military to civilian employment.
         
         Federal management._VETS' Federal management budget activity carries out programs and develops policies to provide veterans the maximum employment
            and training opportunities (38 U.S.C. 4102â4103A) and to investigate complaints received under the Uniformed Services Employment
            and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) (38 USC 4322). Veterans' Preference activities, which are intended to assist veterans
            in obtaining Federal employment (39 U.S.C. 4214), are also supported under this activity.Resources under this activity are also used to evaluate the job training and employment assistance services provided to veterans
               under the Jobs for Veterans State Grants (38 U.S.C. 4102A), the Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program (Section 738 of the
               Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act (MHAA) of July 1987, and amended by Section 5 of the Homeless Veterans Comprehensive
               Assistance Act (HVCAA of 2001). This budget activity supports field activities and personnel who provide technical assistance
               to grantees to ensure they meet negotiated and mandated performance goals and other grant provisions.This budget activity also supports the oversight and development of policies for the Transition Assistance Program (10 U.S.C.
               1144 and 38 U.S.C. 4113). The activity funds outreach and education efforts, such as job fairs, that raise the awareness of
               employers about the benefits of hiring veterans. The activities of the Advisory Committee for Veterans Employment, Training,
               and Employer Outreach (38 U.S.C. 4110) also are supported. The REALifeLines initiative facilitates timely and comprehensive
               employment services to our Nation's severely wounded and injured veterans.
         National Veterans' Employment and Training Services Institute._The National Veterans' Training Institute (NVTI) supplies competency-based training to Federal and State providers of services
            to veterans (38 U.S.C. 4109). NVTI also provides training for VETS personnel. NVTI is administered through a contract and
            supported by dedicated funds. NVTI ensures that these service providers receive a comprehensive foundation so they can effectively
            assist job-seeking veterans.
         
         Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program._The Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program (HVRP) (38 U.S.C. 2021) provides grants to States or other public entities, as
            well as to non-profits, including faith-based organizations. Grant awards enable grantees to operate employment programs to
            reach out to homeless veterans and help them become employed. VETS partners with the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing
            and Urban Development to promote multi-agency-funded programs that integrate the different services needed by homeless veterans.
            HVRP grants are provided for both urban and rural areas.
