SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title of Collection: Certification of Vaccination.
    OMB Control Number: 3170-0075.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Affected Public: Individuals.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,500.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 125.
    Abstract: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB or the 
Bureau) established safety protocols for both fully vaccinated and 
unvaccinated people. This information collection (i.e., the 
Certification of Vaccination form) will ascertain individuals' 
vaccination statuses to the Bureau to comply with Executive Order 13991 
titled ``Protecting the Federal Workforce and Requiring Mask-Wearing.'' 
In compliance with guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC) and the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force, the Bureau 
is collecting this information from fully vaccinated individuals so 
that they can comply with Bureau safety guidelines. The Bureau is also 
collecting this information from partially or unvaccinated individuals 
so that that other measures can be implemented to enforce Bureau safety 
guidelines (e.g., wearing masks, physical/social distancing, regular 
testing, adherence to applicable travel requirements). The Bureau 
collects these data to promote the safety of Federal buildings, the 
Federal workforce, and others on site at agency facilities consistent 
with the COVID-19 Workplace Safety: Agency Model Safety Principles 
established by the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force and guidance from 
the CDC and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. 
Specifically, Bureau staff will use these data for implementing and 
enforcing workplace safety protocols.
    Request for Comments: Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the 
collection of

the Bureau, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (b) The accuracy of the Bureau's estimate of the burden of the 
collection of information, including the validity of the methods and 
the assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 
clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Ways to minimize 
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including 
through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology. Comments submitted in response to this notice 
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.
