         Enacted in 2014, the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) is the primary authorization for this appropriation account.
            The Act is intended to provide job seekers and workers with the labor market information, job search assistance, and training
            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.â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.â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.âGrants to provide reemployment services and retraining assistance to individuals dislocated from their employment. The Budget
            provides funding for National Dislocated Worker Grants specifically targeted to communities in the Appalachian region.
         
         Native Americans.âGrants to Indian tribes and other Native American groups to provide training, work experience, and other employment-related
            services to Native Americans.
         
         
         Reintegration of Ex-Offenders.â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 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.â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.
         
         
         YouthBuild.â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.â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. Job Corps operates 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, Native American organizations and Alaskan Native corporations 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 opened 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 2018 Budget will close chronically low-performing centers, saving funds and focusing the program on the operation of centers
            that have proven that they can successfully educate and prepare youth for jobs. The Budget also proposes to prioritize the
            enrollment of youth who are at least 20 years old, for whom the program has been proven to be more effective.

         Unemployment compensation.â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.âThe public employment service is a nationwide system providing no-fee employment services to job-seekers and employers.
            State 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 as for amortization payments for those States
            that had independent retirement plans prior to 1980 in their State employment service agencies.

         Foreign Labor Certification.âThis activity provides for the administration and operation of the foreign labor certification programs within the Employment
            and Training Administration. Under these programs, U.S. employers that can demonstrate a shortage of qualified, available
            U.S. workers and that there would be no adverse impact on similarly situated U.S. workers may seek the Secretary of Labor's
            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.â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.â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.â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.â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 Budget proposes authorizing legislation to establish and retain fees to cover the costs of operating the foreign labor
            certification programs, which ensure that employers proposing to bring in immigrant workers have checked to ensure that American
            workers cannot meet their needs and that immigrant workers are being compensated appropriately and not disadvantaging American
            workers. The ability to charge fees for these programs would give the Department of Labor a more reliable, workload-based
            source of funding for this function (as the Department of Homeland Security has), and would ultimately eliminate the need
            for discretionary appropriations. The proposal includes the following: 1) charge employer fees for its prevailing wage determinations;
            2) charge employer fees for its permanent labor certification program; 3) charge employer fees for H-2B non-agricultural workers;
            and 4) retain and adjust the H-2A agricultural worker application fees currently deposited into the General Fund. The fee
            levels, including possible expedited processing fees, would be set via regulation to ensure that the amounts are subject to
            review. Given DOL OIG's important role in investigating fraud and abuse, the proposal also includes a mechanism to provide
            funding for OIG's work to oversee foreign labor certification programs.

         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 provided for 100 percent reimbursement of STC benefit costs paid under state
            law for up to 156 weeks, or three years (reimbursement was 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 provides mandatory general revenue funding for a temporary program established under the American Recovery and
            Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111â5) and subsequently extended. This program paid a supplement of $25 on every week
            of unemployment compensation. It was last extended in Public Law 111â157 and paid benefits through its December 7, 2010, with
            a phaseout period. As a result of adjudications, benefits continue to be paid but are minimal.
         
      
         Advances to the unemployment trust fund and other fundsFor repayable advances to the Unemployment Trust Fund as authorized by sections 905(d) and 1203 of the Social Security Act,
            and to the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund as authorized by section 9501(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; and
            for nonrepayable advances to the revolving fund established by section 901(e) of the Social Security Act, to the Unemployment
            Trust Fund as authorized by 5 U.S.C. 8509, and to the "Federal Unemployment Benefits and Allowances" account, such sums as
            may be necessary, which shall be available for obligation through September 30, 2019.
      
      
         This appropriation 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 appropriation 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 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 2017 and 2018. 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 2018 request continues this
            authority.
         
      
         Program administrationFor expenses of administering employment and training programs, $104,378,000, together with not to exceed $49,887,000 which may be expended from the Employment Security Administration Account in the Unemployment Trust Fund.
      Note.âA full-year 2017 appropriation for this account was not enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, the
         budget assumes this account is operating under the Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2017 (P.L. 114â254). The amounts
         included for 2017 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

         Workers Compensation Programs.âSection 5011 of Public Law 109â148 made $50,000,000 available to the New York State Uninsured Employers Fund for reimbursement
            of claims related to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States and for reimbursement of claims related
            to the first response emergency services personnel who were injured, were disabled, or died due to such terrorist attacks.
         
      
         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). The UTF has one account for the railroad unemployment insurance system but for the Federal-State unemployment
            insurance system there are 57 separate accounts: one for each of the 50 states, three jurisdictions (District of Columbia,
            Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands) and four federal accounts. The state and jurisdiction accounts receive funds from a state unemployment
            insurance payroll tax which is used to pay benefits. The Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) payroll tax provides funds for
            two of the Federal accounts - the Employment Security Administration Account (ESAA) and the Extended Unemployment Compensation
            Account (EUCA) while the remaining two, the Federal Unemployment Account (FUA) and the Federal Employee Compensation Account
            (FECA) are revolving accounts.
         
         Except for FECA balances, funds on deposit in the UTF accounts are invested in Government securities until needed for payment
            of benefits or administrative expenses. FUTA is deposited in the ESAA which retains 80 percent of the deposit and pays the
            costs of Federal and State administration of the unemployment insurance system, veterans' employment services, surveys of
            wages and employment, foreign labor certifications and about 97 percent of the costs of the Employment Service. The other
            20 percent of FUTA is transferred to EUCA which pays for certain extended benefit (EB) payments. During periods of high State
            unemployment, there is a stand-by program of EB, financed one-half by State unemployment taxes and one-half by the FUTA payroll
            tax.
         
         The UTF also provides repayable advances (loans) to the States and jurisdictions from FUA when the balances in their individual
            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 UTF 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 UTF, and receipts from a tax on railroad payrolls are deposited into the program's account in the UTF to
            meet expenses.

         Minimum Solvency Standard.âSince the end of the most recent recession, many states continue to struggle to maintain adequate Unemployment Insurance
            (UI) Trust Fund balances. The Budget includes a proposal to add a minimum solvency standard in the UI program to help address
            the challenge states face in maintaining sufficient balances in their Unemployment Trust Fund accounts. This proposal would
            strengthen states' incentive to adequately fund their UI systems by making states that fail to maintain an Average High-Cost
            Multiple (AHCM) of 0.5 for two consecutive January firsts subject to FUTA tax credit reductions under the same schedule that
            states which go below a zero trust fund balance face currently.
         
         UI Program Integrity Package.âThe Budget includes a package of program integrity proposals similar to those included in the proposed Unemployment Compensation
            Program Integrity Act, which the Department sent to Congress last year in response to the UI program's three consecutive years
            of high improper payment rates. Specifically, the package includes the following proposals:
         
         Require states to use SIDES.âThis proposal will require state UI agencies to use the State Information Data Exchange System (SIDES) to exchange information
            with employers concerning reasons for a claimant's separation from employment.
         
         Require states to cross-match against the NDNH.âThis proposal will require state UI agencies to use the National Directory for New Hires in their claims to better identify
            individuals continuing to claim unemployment compensation after returning to work, one of the leading root causes of UI improper
            payments.
         
         Allow the Secretary of Labor to establish UI corrective actions.âThis proposal will allow the Secretary of Labor to require states to implement corrective action measures for poor state performance
            in the UI program, helping to reduce improper payments in states with the highest improper payment rates. Currently, the Secretary
            has very limited options to require state UI agencies to take actions to respond to poor performance and high improper payment
            rates.
         
         Require states to cross-match with SSA's prisoner database.âUnder current law, state UI agencies' use of cross-matches is permissible and the Social Security Administration's (SSA) Prisoner
            Update Processing System (PUPS) is currently only used by some states for UI verification. Requiring states to cross-match
            claims against the PUPS or other repositories of prisoner information will help identify those individuals ineligible for
            benefits due to incarceration and reduce improper payments.
         
         Allow states to retain 5 percent of UI overpayments for program integrity use.âThis proposal will allow States to retain 5 percent of overpayment recoveries to fund program integrity activities in each
            state's UI program. This provides an incentive to states to increase detection and recovery of improper payments and provides
            necessary resources to carry out staff-intensive work to validate crossmatch hits as required by law.
         
         Require states to use penalty and interest collections solely for UI administration.âThis proposal will require states to deposit all penalty and interest payments collected through the UI program into the state's
            Unemployment Trust Fund account and require the funds be used for improving state administration of the UI program and reemployment
            services for UI claimants. States with high improper payment rates would be required to use a portion of the funds for program
            integrity activities. Currently, states have discretion to use these funds for non-UI purposes.
         
         Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessments (RESEA).âThe Budget includes a proposal to make the RESEA program a permanent program that states are required to operate in conjunction
            with their UI program. It will provide mandatory funding to states to provide RESEAs for the one-half of UI claimants profiled
            as most likely to exhaust benefits and for transitioning veterans receiving Unemployment Compensation for Ex-military Members
            (UCX) benefits. Funding for this proposal will begin in 2019; discretionary funding for these activities is provided in 2018.
         
         Offset Overlapping UI and Disability Insurance Benefits.âThe Budget includes a proposal to reduce an individual's entitlement to a Disability Insurance benefit in any month in which
            the individual also receives an unemployment compensation benefit.
         
         Paid Parental Leave.âThe Budget includes a proposal to establish a Federal-state paid parental leave benefit program within the unemployment insurance
            (UI) program that would begin in 2020. The program will provide six weeks of benefits for mothers, fathers, and adoptive parents.
            The benefit is provided to help families recover from childbirth and to bond with their new children.

         included for 2017 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

         1 Reflects a revision of original estimates based on an assumed full-year continuing resolution in 2017.2 Reflects the consolidation of budget activities for Enforcement and Participant Assistance, Policy and Compliance Assistance,
         and Executive Leadership, Program Oversight and Administration into a single budget activity for Employee Benefits Security
         Programs.3 The agency continues its efforts to enhance the quality and impact of its investigations and has placed 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.4 Reflects nearly $559 million in participant benefit recoveries, over $109 million in plan assets restored, nearly $22 million
         in distributions for abandoned plans, over $9 million for Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program recoveries and nearly $11
         million in participant health plan recoveries.5 Enforcement measures are based on the timely conduct and referral of cases for litigation or prosecution (excludes Major
         Cases).6 Includes Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement (MEWA) registrations.

         The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) 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 40,000,000 American
            workers in two separate insurance programs. The single-employer program protects about 30,000,000 workers and retirees in
            over 22,000 pension plans. The multiemployer program protects over 10,000,000 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
            $522,917,000 in spending authority for administrative purposes in 2018. The request includes costs for increased cybersecurity
            and a repeat of the 2017 request for funds available over five years to support the acquisition of a new PBGC headquarters
            lease as a full-year appropriation had not been enacted at the time the budget was produced.
         
         Protecting Multiemployer Participants.âThe Budget will include proposed changes to PBGC's premiums that would raise $21,248,000,000 over the budget window.
         
         Specifically, the Budget proposes to create a variable-rate premium (VRP) and an exit premium in the multiemployer program.
            A multiemployer VRP would require plans to pay additional premiums based on their level of underfunding- as is done in the
            single-employer program. An exit premium assessed on employers that withdraw from a plan would compensate the insurance program
            for the additional risk imposed on it when employers exit. Premium rate changes would be phased-in over the ten year Budget
            window. PBGC would have limited authority to design waivers for some or all of the variable rate premium assessed to terminated
            plans or ongoing plans that are in critical status, if there is a substantial risk that the payment of premiums will accelerate
            plan insolvency resulting in earlier financial assistance to the plan. Aggregate waivers for a year would be limited to 25%
            of anticipated total multiemployer variable rate premiums for all plans.
         
         The Budget also calls for the repeal of provisions accelerating fiscal year 2026 premiums into fiscal year 2025 and repeals
            the requirement for certain multiemployer premium revenues to be held in non-interest bearing investments. The Budget will
            instead accelerate premium payments in both the single and multiemployer programs from fiscal year 2028 into fiscal year 2027.
         
         Plan Preservation Efforts.âPBGC works 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.
            Last year, PBGC worked with dozens of companies, both in bankruptcy and otherwise, to preserve their plans that were at risk.
            In 2016, PBGC:
         
         âHelped to protect 55,000 people by encouraging companies to keep their plans when they emerged from bankruptcy;
         âNegotiated almost $3,000,000,000 in financial assurance to protect more than 367,000 people in plans at risk; and
         âConducted reviews of plan sponsor calculations for plans that end through standard terminations, resulting in almost 940
            participants receiving corrected benefit amounts totaling $4,500,000.
         
         Stepping in to Insure Pensions When Plans Fail.âWhen plans do fail, PBGC steps in to ensure that a portion of benefits continue to be paid. Over the years, PBGC has become
            responsible for almost 1,500,000 people in nearly 4,800 failed plans. In 2016, PBGC:
         
         âPaid $5,700,000,000 to almost 840,000 retirees in more than 4,700 failed single-employer plans;
         âProvided $113,000,000 in financial assistance to 65 multiemployer pension plans covering the benefits of 59,000 participants
            (an additional 27,000 workers in these multiemployer plans will receive guaranteed benefits when they retire) over the past
            year; and
         
         âAssumed responsibility for more than 46,000 people in 76 trusteed single-employer plans
         Single-employer benefit payments.âThe single-employer program protects about 30,000,000 workers and retirees in about 22,000 pension plans. Under this program,
            a company may voluntarily seek to terminate its plan, or PBGC may voluntarily seek to terminate its plan, or PBGC may seek
            termination. The PBGC must seek termination when a plan cannot pay current benefits. 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, 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.
         
         Multiemployer financial assistance.âThe multiemployer insurance program protects over 10,000,000 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.
         
         Consolidated Administrative Budget.âPBGC's administrative budget comprises all expenditures and operations that support:
         
         âBenefit payments to pension plan participants
         âFinancial assistance to distressed multiemployer pension plans
         âStewardship and accountability
         These operations include premium collections, 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
            procurement, financial management, human resources, facilities management, communications, legal support, and information
            technology infrastructure. These funds support the operations of the Pension and Plan Sponsor Advocate as well as the Inspector
            General and funding to support the required functions and efforts of that office, including training and participation in
            Council of the Inspector Generals on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) activities.

         The 2018 Budget proposes changes to PBGC premiums that would raise $21 billion. The Budget proposes to create a new variable
            rate premium (VRP) and an exit premium in the multiemployer program, estimated to raise an additional $16 billion in premium
            revenue over the budget window. This level of additional multiemployer premium revenue is expected to be sufficient to fund
            the multiemployer program for the next 20 years. In addition, the Budget proposes to accelerate the plan year 2027 payment
            date for both single and multiemployer premiums by one month while reversing a prior change in the payment date for plan year
            2025 premiums.

         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.

      Note.âA full-year 2017 appropriation for this account was not enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, the

         included for 2017 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

      Note.âA full-year 2017 appropriation for this account was not enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, the
         budget assumes this account is operating under the Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2017 (P.L. 114â254). The amounts

         Federal Employees' Compensation Act benefits.â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). A workers' compensation
            case is created following the receipt of an injury report or claim for occupational disease. In 2018, the FECA Program projects
            to create 110,300 cases for Federal workers or their survivors; 17,500 Federal employees are projected to submit initial wage-loss
            claims; and 40,000 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.â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.

         Energy Employees' Compensation Act benefits.â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.â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.
         
         The Carl Levin and Howard P. "Buck" McKeon national Defense Authorization Act of 2015 (P.L. 113â291) amended EEOICPA to include
            Section 3687, creating the Advisory Board on Toxic Substances and Worker Health to advise the Secretary of Labor (as delegated
            by Executive Order 13699) with respect to technical aspects of the EEOICPA program. The Advisory Board is charged with advising
            the Secretary on four statutorily-specific technical issues related to EEOICPA: DOL's site exposure matrices; medical guidance
            for claims examiners; evidentiary requirements for claims under subtitle B related to lung disease; and the work of industrial
            hygienists and staff physicians and consulting physicians to ensure quality, objectivity, and consistency.

         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 FECA program from
            the Commission to the Department of Labor, effective January 1, 1989.

         included for 2017 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

         The trust fund consists of all monies collected from the coal mine industry under the provisions of the Black Lung Benefits
            Revenue Act of 1981, as amended by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, in the form of an excise tax
            on mined coal. These moneys are expended to pay compensation, medical, and survivor benefits to eligible miners and their
            survivors, where mine employment terminated prior to 1970 or where no mine operator can be assigned liability. In addition,
            the fund pays all administrative costs incurred in the operation of Part C of the Black Lung program. The fund is administered
            jointly by the Secretaries of Labor, 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 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, for the benefit of job seekers and wage earners, the
            contractual promise of affirmative action and equal employment opportunity required of those who do business with the Federal
            government. OFCCP administers Executive Order 11246, as amended, which prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of
            race, religion, color, sex, and/or national origin; Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and the Americans
            with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), as amended, 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
            protected veterans. OFCCP monitors contractors' compliance through reporting requirements and compliance evaluations. The
            2018 Budget proposes merging OFCCP into the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), creating one agency to combat
            employment discrimination. OFCCP and EEOC will work collaboratively to coordinate this transition to the EEOC by the end of
            FY 2018. This builds on the existing tradition of operational coordination between the two agencies. The transition of OFCCP
            and integration of these two agencies will reduce operational redundancies, promote efficiencies, improve services to citizens,
            and strengthen civil rights enforcement.

         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 2018, 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.

            Act (the "Act"), which grants shall be no less than 50 percent of the costs of State occupational safety and health programs
            required to be incurred under plans approved by the Secretary under section 18 of the Act; and, in addition, notwithstanding
            31 U.S.C. 3302, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration may retain up to $499,000 per fiscal year of training institute
            course tuition and fees, otherwise authorized by law to be collected, and may utilize such sums for occupational safety and
            health training and education: Provided, That notwithstanding 31 U.S.C. 3302, the Secretary is authorized, during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018, to collect and retain fees for services provided to Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories, and may utilize such sums,
            in accordance with the provisions of 29 U.S.C. 9a, to administer national and international laboratory recognition programs

            regulation, or order under the Act with respect to any employer of 10 or fewer employees who is included within a category
            having a Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred ("DART") occupational injury and illness rate, at the most precise industrial
            classification code for which such data are published, less than the national average rate as such rates are most recently
            published by the Secretary, acting through the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in accordance with section 24 of the Act, exceptâ
      (1) to provide, as authorized by the Act, consultation, technical assistance, educational and training services, and to conduct
            surveys and studies;
      (2) to conduct an inspection or investigation in response to an employee complaint, to issue a citation for violations found

            and for any willful violations found;
      (3) to take any action authorized by the Act with respect to imminent dangers;
      (4) to take any action authorized by the Act with respect to health hazards;
      (5) to take any action authorized by the Act with respect to a report of an employment accident which is fatal to one or more

            authorized by the Act; and
      (6) to take any action authorized by the Act with respect to complaints of discrimination against employees for exercising
            rights under the Act:

            temporary labor camp and employs 10 or fewer employees.
      Note.âA full-year 2017 appropriation for this account was not enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, the
         budget assumes this account is operating under the Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2017 (P.L. 114â254). The amounts
         included for 2017 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

         Safety and Health Standards.â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.â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.âThis activity provides for the enforcement of twenty-two whistleblower protection statutes, including 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. In addition to the OSH Act, this
            activity includes administration of twenty-one other whistleblower protection statutes that protect 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.â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.âThis activity provides support for OSHA's emergency response activities, including responses to oil spills, hurricanes,
            tornados, and other natural or man-made disasters. 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.
         
         Federal Compliance Assistance.â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 high-hazard industries, small business,
            and other hard-to-reach workers. OSHA works with employers and employees through cooperative programs such as the Voluntary
            Protection Programs that recognize employers with exemplary safety and health programs, and Alliances and Strategic Partnerships
            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.â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 in high-hazard industries.
            These projects offer a variety of services, including safety and health program assessment and assistance, hazard identification
            and control, and training of employers and their employees.
         
         Safety and Health Statistics.â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.â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.âThe enforcement strategy in 2018 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. 
         
         Office of Assessments.â 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.â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.â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).âThis activity provides program evaluation and information technology resource management services for the agency.
         
         Program Administration.âThis activity performs general administrative functions and is responsible for meeting performance requirements and developing
            MSHA's performance plan and Annual Performance Report.

         Jobs for Veterans State grants.â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, grants are allocated to States according to the statutory formula 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 assisting veterans with significant barriers to employment,
            or other populations defined by the Secretary or through appropriations language.
         
         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 (TAP).âThis program provides employment workshops for separating service members and their spouses in the continental U.S. and
            at major overseas installations to prepare these individuals for entry into the civilian workforce and job market. Its primary
            goal is to expedite and facilitate the transition from military to civilian employment. 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. TAP now includes an optional two-day Career Technical Training Track (CTTT)
            workshop, for transitioning service members interested in technical careers. This program is conducted consistent with the
            existing TAP Interagency Memorandum of Understanding.
         
         Federal management.âVETS' Federal management budget activity supports the Federal administration of 38 U.S.C. Â§Â§ 41, 42, and 43. This allows VETS to carry out programs such as the Jobs for Veterans State Grants and develop policies to
            provide employment and training opportunities designed to meet the needs of veterans (38 U.S.C. 4102â4115). It also enables
            VETS to discharge its responsibilities to administer, interpret, and help enforce the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment
            Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA), 38 U.S.C. Â§Â§ 4301â4335, in which it provides technical assistance and investigates complaints received from veterans and service members
            who believe their employment and reemployment rights were violated. In addition, this budget activity enables VETS to investigate
            complaints received from preference eligibles who believe their veterans' preference rights in Federal hiring pursuant to
            the Veterans' Employment Opportunities Act of 1998 (VEOA), 5 U.S.C. Â§ 3330a, were violated. VETS' Federal Contractor Program (VETS-4212) is also supported under this activity, pursuant to 38
            U.S.C. Â§ 4212. These responsibilities involve administering a system whereby Federal contractors submit reports setting forth their
            affirmative action efforts to hire and retain eligible veterans in their employ.
         
         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(b)(5)), and 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 TAP (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.
         
         National Veterans' Employment and Training Services Institute.â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.â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 assist in reintegrating homeless veterans into meaningful employment within the labor force
            and to stimulate the development of effective service delivery systems that will address the complex problems facing homeless
            veterans. 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.

         Departmental Support Systems.âThis activity represents a permanent, centralized IT investment fund for the Department of Labor managed by the Chief Information
            Officer. The fund supports enterprise-wide IT security enhancements that facilitate a centrally managed IT environment with
            increased risk mitigation parameters to protect the integrity of DOL data and network availability. These efforts are achieved
            through several new and ongoing projects mandated by executive and congressional directives.
         
         IT Infrastructure Modernization.âThis Chief Information Officer-managed activity funds the effort to transform nine major independently funded and managed
            IT infrastructure silos at the sub-agency level into a unified IT infrastructure. The unified infrastructure will be centrally
            managed and provide all agencies with general purpose business productivity tools, a shared environment for common data sources,
            and the underlying IT services to support it.

         The Budget proposes authorizing legislation to establish and retain fees to cover the costs of operating the foreign labor
            certification programs, which ensure that employers proposing to bring in immigrant workers have checked to ensure that American
            workers cannot meet their needs and that immigrant workers are being compensated appropriately and not disadvantaging American
            workers. The ability to charge fees for these programs would give the Department of Labor a more reliable, workload-based
            source of funding for this function (as the Department of Homeland Security has), and would ultimately eliminate the need
            for discretionary appropriations. The proposal includes the following: 1) charge employer fees for its prevailing wage determinations;
            2) charge employer fees for its permanent labor certification program; 3) charge employer fees for H-2B non-agricultural workers;
            and 4) retain and adjust the H-2A agricultural worker application fees currently deposited into the General Fund. The fee
            levels, including possible expedited processing fees, would be set via regulation to ensure that the amounts are subject to
            review. Given DOL OIG's important role in investigating fraud and abuse, the proposal also includes a mechanism to provide
            funding for OIG's work to oversee foreign labor certification programs.
