________________________________________________________________________
The purpose of the Department of Labor is to foster, promote, and 
develop the welfare of the wage earners of the United States, to improve 
their working conditions, and to advance their opportunities for 
profitable employment. In carrying out this mission, the Department 
administers a variety of Federal labor laws guaranteeing workers' rights 
to safe and healthful working conditions, a minimum hourly wage and 
overtime pay, freedom from employment discrimination, unemployment 
insurance, and workers' compensation. The Department also protects 
workers' pension rights; provides for job training programs; helps 
workers find jobs; works to strengthen free collective bargaining; and 
keeps track of changes in employment, prices, and other national 
economic measurements. As the Department seeks to assist all Americans 
who need and want to work, special efforts are made to meet the unique 
job market problems of older workers, youths, minority group members, 
women, the handicapped, and other groups.

The Department of Labor (DOL), the ninth executive department, was 
created by act of March 4, 1913 (29 U.S.C. 551). A Bureau of Labor was 
first created by Congress in 1884 under the Interior Department. The 
Bureau of Labor later became independent as a Department of Labor 
without executive rank. It again returned to bureau status in the 
Department of Commerce and Labor, which was created by act of February 
14, 1903 (15 U.S.C. 1501).

Office of the Secretary of Labor

Secretary  The Secretary is the head of the Department of Labor and the 
principal adviser to the President on the development and execution of 
policies and the administration and enforcement of laws relating to wage 
earners, their working conditions, and their employment opportunities. 
The Office of the Secretary includes the Offices of Deputy Secretary, 
Inspector General, the Assistant Secretaries, and the Solicitor of

Employees' Compensation Appeals Board  The Employees' Compensation 
Appeals Board consists of three members and three alternate members

Chairman. The function of the Board is to consider and decide appeals 
from final decisions in cases arising under the Federal Employees' 
Compensation Act (5 U.S.C. 8101). The decisions of the Board are final 
and not subject to court review.

For further information, call 202-401-8600.

Administrative Appeals  The Office of Administrative Appeals assists the 
Deputy Secretary in reviewing appeals from decisions of Administrative 
Law Judges under certain laws and programs. These appeals arise under 
the Job Training Partnership Act, the Trade Act, the Surface 
Transportation Assistance Act, the Energy Reorganization Act, and 
several environmental laws, unemployment insurance conformity 
proceedings, and cases brought by the Office of Federal Contract 
Compliance Programs.

International Affairs

The Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB) carries out the 
Department of Labor's international responsibilities under the direction 
of the Deputy Under Secretary for International Affairs, and assists in 
formulating international economic, trade, and immigration policies 
affecting American workers.
    The Bureau represents the United States on delegations to 
multilateral and bilateral trade negotiations, and on such international 
bodies as the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the 
International Labor Organization (ILO), the Organization for Economic 
Cooperation and Development (OECD), and other U.N. organizations. It 
also helps administer the U.S. labor attache program at embassies 
abroad; carries out overseas technical assistance projects; monitors 
internationally recognized worker rights; and conducts labor study 
programs for foreign visitors to the United States.
    The Deputy Under Secretary serves as U.S. Government Representative 
to the ILO Governing Body, a Presidential appointment, and as head of 
the tripartite U.S. delegation to the annual ILO Conference.
    ILAB established, in 1993, a congressionally mandated project to 
gather information on child labor practices worldwide. Specifically, 
Congress directed the Secretary of Labor to undertake a review 
identifying any foreign industry and its host country that utilize child 
labor in the export of manufactured products from industry or mining to 
the United States. ILAB published its first report, entitled By The 
Sweat and Toil of Children: The Use of Child Labor in American Imports, 
in September 1994.
    Effective January 1, 1994, the Secretary of Labor established, 
within the Bureau, the U.S. National Administrative Office of the North 
American Agreement on Labor Cooperation.

Employment and Training Administration

The Employment and Training Administration, through a variety of 
programs, fulfills responsibilities assigned to the Secretary of Labor 
that relate to employment services, job training, and unemployment 
insurance. Component offices and services of the Administration 
administer a Federal-State employment security system; fund and oversee 
programs to provide work experience and training for groups having 
difficulty entering or returning to the work force; formulate and 
promote apprenticeship standards and programs; and conduct continuing 
programs of research, development, and evaluation.
    The Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training directs the 
administration of agency programs and is responsible for ensuring that 
programs funded through the agency are free from unlawful 
discrimination, fraud, and abuse, and that they comply with 
constitutional, statutory, and regulatory provisions. It is the policy 
of the Administration to promote equal opportunity, affirmative action, 
and integrity in programs to which the Administration extends financial 
assistance.
    The Administration has five major components that cover employment 
security, job training, planning and policy development, financial and 
administrative management, and regional management.
Federal Unemployment Insurance Service  The Federal-State Unemployment 
Compensation Program, under provisions of the Social Security Act of 
1935 (42 U.S.C. 1305), is the basic program of income support for the 
Nation's unemployed workers. With limited Federal intervention, 
unemployment insurance benefits are payable under laws of individual 
States. The Federal Unemployment Insurance Service provides leadership 
and policy guidance to State employment security agencies for the 
development, improvement, and operation of the Federal-State 
unemployment insurance system and of related wage-loss, worker 
dislocation, and adjustment assistance compensation programs, including 
to ex-service personnel and Federal civilian workers, and supplemental 
or extended benefits programs.
    The Service reviews State unemployment insurance laws and their 
administration by the States to determine whether they are in conformity 
with Federal requirements; supervises the development of programs and 
methods for benefit, adjudication, appeals, tax collection, and trust 
fund management activities implemented by the State agencies; oversees 
the actuarial soundness of the level and relationship of State 
expenditures, revenues, and reserves, and of Federal appropriations for 
payment of benefits; and is implementing a quality control program to 
provide a diagnostic tool for States to identify and correct errors in 
benefit payments and tax collections and to raise program quality and 
integrity.
    The Service also provides national leadership and direction in 
implementing its responsibilities under trade adjustment assistance, 
redwood park expansion, airline deregulation, and disaster unemployment 
assistance legislation.

For further information, call 202-219-0600.

United States Employment Service  The Service, under the provisions of 
the Wagner-Peyser Act (29 U.S.C. 49 et seq.), provides assistance to 
States in establishing and maintaining a system of local public 
employment offices in the States and territories and interstate 
clearance of Labor. The State public employment service is responsible 
for providing unemployed individuals and other jobseekers with job 
placement, and other employment services and for providing employers 
with recruitment services and referrals of job-seeking applicants.
    The Service administers the Work Incentive (WIN) program, which was 
authorized by the Social Security Amendments of 1967 (42 U.S.C. 1305 
note) and 1971 (85 Stat. 802). WIN is 

[[Page 387]]
jointly administered by the Departments of Labor and Health and Human 
Services and is designed to help persons receiving Aid to Families with 
Dependent Children (AFDC) become self-supporting.
    The Service, through the State public employment service system, 
also provides subsidiary services which include:
    --certifying aliens who seek to enter the United States for 
permanent employment as immigrants or as temporary workers;
    --providing specialized recruitment assistance to employers;
    --determining classifications of labor surplus area annually and for 
exceptional circumstance petitions;
    --providing labor surplus area information to the general public and 
to other Federal or State agencies to meet various program 
responsibilities;
    --disseminating labor market information;
    --providing individuals with guidance, counseling, testing referral, 
and job opportunities;
    --reviewing rural industrialization loan and grant certification 
applications under the Rural Development Act of 1972 (7 U.S.C. 1921);
    --distributing airline job opening information for rehiring under 
the Airline Deregulation Act (49 U.S.C. app. 1301); and
    --providing supportive services to employers and applicants through 
the Federal bonding program.

For further information, call 202-219-0157.

Office of Work-Based Learning  The Office administers activities under 
several Federal laws regarding worker training and retraining. These 
include the dislocated worker program under the Economic Dislocation and 
Worker Adjustment Assistance Act (EDWAA) (Title III of the Job Training 
Partnership Act (JTPA)); Federal activities under the Worker Adjustment 
and Retraining Notification Act (WARN); Federal activities under the 
Apprenticeship Act; and the Trade Adjustment Assistance Program under 
the Trade Act. In addition, the Office carries out research and 
demonstration programs.

For further information, call 202-219-0540.

Office of Worker Retraining and Adjustment Programs  The Office performs 
dislocated worker programs functions under the the Economic Dislocation 
and Worker Adjustment Assistance Act (Title III of JTPA), and Federal 
activities under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act.

For further information, call 202-219-0525.

Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance  The Office administers the Trade 
Adjustment Assistance program provisions of the Trade Act of 1974, as 
amended (19 U.S.C. 2101 et seq.), through agreements with the States. 
The program provides reemployment services such as training, job search 
and relocation allowances, and weekly cash payments to U.S. workers who 
are separated from employment because of foreign imports.
    The Office receives petitions for adjustment assistance from either 
adversely affected workers, a duly recognized union, or an authorized 
representative of the workers and conducts factfinding investigations to 
develop necessary data on which certification determinations can be 
based. Determinations may involve approval, denial, or termination of 
worker groups' eligibility for trade adjustment assistance benefits.
    The Office develops policies and prepares program directives to 
regional offices and State agencies on the administration and funding of 
reemployment services, and develops and maintains a system for 
allocating funds to those offices and agencies for reemployment 
services. It also directs and conducts industry studies of the number of 
workers in a domestic industry likely to be certified as eligible for 
adjustment assistance and of the extent to which existing training and 
employment programs may facilitate the workers' adjustment to import 
competition when an industry petitions 

[[Page 388]]
the Federal Government that it is being injured because of import 
competition.

For further information, call 202-219-0555.

Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training  The National Apprenticeship Act 
(29 U.S.C. 50) was passed in 1937 to enable the Department of Labor to 
formulate and promote the furtherance of labor standards necessary to 
safeguard the welfare of apprentices and cooperate with the States in 
the promotion of such standards, and to bring together employers and 
labor for the formulation of programs of apprenticeship.
    Sponsors and potential sponsors are encouraged and assisted in the 
development, expansion, and improvement of apprenticeship and other 
forms of allied industrial training. Technical information on training 
methods, public training facilities, and successfully executed systems 
are made available to industry. Through field representatives in States, 
the Bureau works closely with employers, labor unions, vocational 
schools, community planning groups, and others concerned with 
apprenticeship.
    Programs must meet standards established by the Bureau or a 
recognized State Apprenticeship Council to be registered. Field 
compliance reviews are conducted to determine conformity with Federal 
equal employment opportunity and other standards for apprenticeship and 
training.

For further information, call 202-219-0540.

Job Training Partnership Act

The Office of Job Training Programs is responsible for the development 
and issuance of Federal procedures and policies pertaining to the 
operation of the Job Training Partnership Act (29 U.S.C. 1501 note) 
programs.
    Under the act, the Secretary of Labor makes block grants to the 50 
States, Guam, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, the Commonwealth of the 
Northern Marianas, American Samoa, Republic of the Marshall Islands, 
Republic of Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and the District of 
Columbia.
    The goal of the act is to train or retrain and place eligible 
individuals in permanent, unsubsidized employment, preferably in the 
private sector. Eligible individuals are primarily economically 
disadvantaged individuals, in particular economically disadvantaged 
youth, dislocated workers, and others who face significant barriers to 
employment. The act also provides that a fixed percentage of the block

Office of the American Workplace

The Office of the American Workplace was created by Secretary's Order No 
2-93, dated July 21, 1993. The Assistant Secretary for the American 
Workplace is responsible for administering and directing workplace 
programs which: encourage the development of work organization, human 
resource practices, technology, and performance measurements that 
enhance business competitiveness and the skills, involvement, and 
commitment of front-line workers; promote innovative relations among 
managers, labor unions, and professional organizations and workers;

of various federally sponsored transportation programs; and safeguard 
the financial integrity and internal democracy of American labor unions, 
while assisting the unions in improving their organizational and 
administrative effectiveness.

Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration

The Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration (PWBA) helps to protect 
the economic future and retirement security of working Americans, as 
required under the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 
(ERISA) (29 U.S.C. 1001).
    The act requires administrators of private pension and welfare plans 
to provide plan participants with easily understandable summaries of 
plans; to file those summaries with the agency; and to report annually 
on the financial operation of the plans and bonding of persons charged 
with handling plan funds and assets. Plan administrators must also meet 
strict fiduciary responsibility standards that are enforced by PWBA.
    The Administration is charged with assuring responsible management 
of nearly 1 million pension plans and 4\1/2\ million health and welfare 
plans, and is the national guardian of a vast private retirement and 
welfare benefit system. Its major activities include: formulating 
current and future policy; conducting research; issuing regulations and 
technical guidance concerning ERISA requirements; enforcing ERISA 
requirements; and assisting and educating the public and the employee 
benefits community about ERISA. The Administration is enforced through 
its 15 field offices nationwide and the national office in Washington, 
DC.
    Vesting, participation, and funding standards are primarily 
administered by the Internal Revenue Service.

Wage and Hour Division

The Wage and Hour Administrator is responsible for planning, directing, 
and administering programs dealing with a variety of Federal labor 
legislation. These programs are designed to:
    --protect low-wage incomes as provided by the minimum wage 
provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (29 U.S.C. 201);
    --safeguard the health and welfare of workers by discouraging 
excessively long hours of work through enforcement of the overtime 
provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act;
    --safeguard the health and well-being of minors;
    --prevent curtailment of employment and earnings for students, 
trainees, and handicapped workers;
    --minimize losses of income and job rights caused by indebtedness; 
and
    --direct a program of farm labor contractor registration designed to 
protect the health, safety, and welfare of migrant and seasonal 
agricultural workers; and
    --administer and enforce a number of immigration-related programs 
(with INS) designed to safeguard the rights of both American and foreign 
workers and to prevent American workers similarly employed from being 
adversely affected by employment of alien workers.
    The Wage and Hour Division is also
responsible for predetermination of prevailing wage rates for Federal 
construction contracts and federally assisted programs for construction, 
alteration and repair of public works subject to the Davis-Bacon (40 
U.S.C. 276a) and related acts, and a continuing program for determining 
wage rates under the Service Contract Act (41 U.S.C. 351). The Division 
also has enforcement responsibility in ensuring that prevailing wages 
and overtime standards are paid in accordance with the provisions of the 
Davis-Bacon and related acts: Service Contract Act, Public Contracts 
Act, and Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act.

For further information, contact the Office of the Administrator, Wage 
and Hour Division, Department of Labor, Room S-3502, 200 Constitution 
Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20210. Phone, 202-219-8305.

Office of Workers' Compensation Programs

Workers' Compensation Act and its various extensions (the Defense Base 
Act, Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, Nonappropriated Fund 
Instrumentalities Act, the District of Columbia Compensation Act, the 
War Hazards Compensation Act, and the War Claims Act), which provide 
benefits to employees in private enterprise while engaged in maritime 
employment on navigable waters in the United States, as well as 
employees of certain government contractors and to private employers in 
the District of Columbia for injuries that occurred prior to July 27, 
1982; and the Black Lung Benefits Act, as amended, which extends 
benefits to coal miners who are totally disabled due to pneumoconiosis, 
a respiratory disease

Mine Safety and Health Administration

The Assistant Secretary of Labor for Mine Safety and Health has 
responsibility for safety and health in the Nation's mines.
    The Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 (30 U.S.C. 801 
et seq.) gave the Administration strong enforcement provisions to 
protect the Nation's coal miners and, in 1977, the Congress passed 
amendments which strengthened the act, expanding its protections and 
extending its provisions to the noncoal mining industry.
    The Administration develops and promulgates mandatory safety and 
health standards, ensures compliance with such standards, assesses civil 
penalties for violations, and investigates accidents. It cooperates with 
and provides assistance to the States in the development of effective 
State mine safety and health programs, improves and expands training 
programs in cooperation with the States and the mining industry, and, in 
coordination with the Department of Health and Human Services and the 
Department of the Interior, contributes to the improvement and expansion 
of mine safety and health research and development. All of these 
activities are aimed at preventing and reducing mine accidents and 
occupational diseases in the mining industry.
    The statutory responsibilities of the Administration are 
administered by a headquarters staff located at Arlington, VA, reporting 
to the Assistant Secretary for Mine Safety and Health and by a field 
network of district, subdistrict, and field offices, technology centers, 
and the Approval and Certification Center.

For further information, contact the Office of Information and Public 
Affairs, Mine Safety and Health Administration, Department of Labor, 
Room 601, 4015 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, VA 22203. Phone, 703-235-

Labor Statistics

The Bureau of Labor Statistics is the principal data-gathering agency of 
the Federal Government in the broad field of labor economics. It has no 
enforcement or regulatory functions. The Bureau collects, processes, 
analyzes, and disseminates data relating to employment, unemployment, 
and other characteristics of the labor force; prices and consumer 
expenditures; wages, other worker compensation, and industrial 
relations; productivity and technological change; economic growth and 
employment projections; and occupational safety and health. Most of the 
data are collected in surveys conducted by the Bureau, the Bureau of the 
Census (on a contract basis), or on a cooperative basis with State 
agencies.
    The Bureau strives to have its data satisfy a number of criteria, 
including: relevance to current social and economic issues, timeliness 
in reflecting today's rapidly changing economic conditions, accuracy and 
consistently high statistical quality, and impartiality in both subject 
matter and presentation.
    The basic data--practically all supplied voluntarily by business 
establishments and members of private households--are issued in monthly, 
quarterly, and annual news releases; bulletins, reports, and special 
publications; and periodicals. Data are also made available through an 
electronic news service, magnetic tape, diskettes, and microfiche, as 
well as on Internet. Regional offices issue additional reports and 
releases usually presenting locality or regional detail.

Veterans' Employment and Training Service

The Veterans' Employment and Training Service is the component of the 
Department of Labor administered by the Assistant Secretary for 
Veterans' Employment and Training. The Assistant Secretary is the 
principal advisor to the Secretary of Labor in the formulation and 
implementation of all departmental policies, procedures, and regulations 
affecting veterans and is responsible for administering veterans' 
employment and training programs and activities through the Service to 
ensure that legislative and regulatory mandates are accomplished.
    The Service carries out its responsibilities for directing the 
Department's veterans' employment and training programs through a 
nationwide network that includes Regional Administrators, Directors (in 
each State) and Assistant Directors (one for each 250,000 veterans in 
each State) for Veterans' Employment and Training, Assistant Regional 
Administrators and Area Agents for Veterans' Reemployment Rights, 
Veterans' Program Specialists, and program support staff.
    The Service field staff works closely with and provides technical 
assistance to State Employment Security Agencies and Job Training 
Partnership Act grant recipients to ensure that veterans are provided 
the priority services required by law. They also coordinate with 
employers, labor unions, veterans service organizations, and community 
organizations through planned public information and outreach 
activities. Federal contractors are provided management assistance in 
complying with their veterans affirmative action and reporting 
obligations.
    Also administered by the Assistant Secretary through the Service is 
the Job Training Partnership Act, title IV, part C grant program 
designed to meet the employment and training needs of service-connected 
disabled veterans, Vietnam-era veterans, and veterans recently separated 
from military service. IV-C grants are awarded and monitored through the 
Service's national office and field staff.
    Certain other Service staff also administer the veterans 
reemployment rights program. They provide assistance to help restore 
job, seniority, and pension rights to veterans following absences from 
work for active military service and to protect employment and retention 
rights of members of the Reserve or National Guard.
