    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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' retirement and health care benefits; 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 present Department of Labor (DOL) was created by act of March 4,
    1913 (29 U.S.C. 551). A Bureau of Labor was first created by Congress by
    act of June 24, 1884, in the Interior Department. The Bureau of Labor
    later became independent as a Department of Labor without executive rank
    by act of June 13, 1888. 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; 29 U.S.C. 1 note).
    Secretary  The Secretary is 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.

    Employees' Compensation Appeals Board  The Board is a three-member
    quasi-judicial body appointed by the Secretary which has been delegated
    exclusive jurisdiction by Congress to hear and make final decisions on
    workers' compensation appeals of Federal employees from determinations
    of the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (Office) arising under
    the Federal Employees' Compensation Act. The Employees' Compensation
    Appeals Board (Board) was created by Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1946
    (60 Stat. 1095). The Board is independent of the Office, and its
    jurisdiction is strictly appellate and extends to questions of fact and
    law. The Board's decisions are not reviewable and are binding upon the
    Office.

    For further information, contact the Clerk of the Employees'
    Compensation Board. Phone, 202-693-6360. Internet, www.dol.gov.

    Small BusinessPrograms  The Office of Small Business Programs ensures
    procurement opportunities for small businesses, small disadvantaged
    businesses, women-owned businesses, HUBZone businesses, and businesses
    owned by service-disabled veterans. It serves as the Department's
    ombudsman under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
    (SBREFA) and is the Department's central referral point for inquiries
    and complaints arising under SBREFA. It is also active in the Department
    of Labor's compliance assistance activities. The Office manages the
    Department's programs for minority colleges and universities and Asian
    American and Pacific Islanders. Additionally, the Office conducts
    national outreach activities to raise awareness of the growing
    opportunities and services available to small businesses and minority
    colleges and universities.

    For further information, call 202-693-6460.

    The Solicitor of Labor  The Office of the Solicitor provides necessary
    legal services to accomplish the Department's mission and goals. The
    Solicitor directs a broad-scale litigation effort in the Federal

    Occupational Safety and Health Administration

    The Administration, headed by the Assistant Secretary for Occupational
    Safety and Health, sets and enforces workplace safety and health
    standards and assists employers in complying with those standards. The
    Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), created pursuant
    to the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 651 et
    seq.), has established a four-fold focus: firm and fair enforcement of
    safety and health rules; partnership with States running their own OSHA-
    approved programs and with employers and employees interested in
    developing effective workplace safety and health programs; efficient
    promulgation of new rules that are clear and easy to understand and
    follow; and increased outreach and training to help employers and
    employees eliminate safety and health hazards.

    Bureau of Labor Statistics

    The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is the principal fact-finding
    agency of the Federal Government in the broad field of labor economics
    and statistics. The

    [[Page 290]]

    Bureau is an independent national statistical agency that collects,
    processes, analyzes, and disseminates essential statistical data to the
    American public, Congress, other Federal agencies, State and local
    governments, businesses, and labor. BLS also serves as a statistical
    resource to the Department of Labor. Data are available relating to
    employment, unemployment, and other characteristics of the labor force;
    consumer and producer prices, consumer expenditures, and import and
    export prices; wages and employee benefits; productivity and
    technological change; employment projections; occupational illness and
    injuries; and international comparisons of labor statistics. 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 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 the Internet at
    stats.bls.gov. Regional offices issue additional reports and releases
    usually presenting locality or regional detail.
