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

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

[[Page 281]]

courts pertaining to various labor statutes administered by the 
Department, ranging from workers' compensation to employment 
discrimination.

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

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.

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.

Veterans' Employment and Training Service

The Veterans' Employment and Training Service (VETS) is responsible for 
administering veterans' employment and training programs and activities 
to ensure that legislative and regulatory mandates are accomplished. The 
field staff works closely with and provides technical assistance to 
State employment security agencies and Workforce Investment 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. VETS provides 
training to separating servicemembers through its transition assistance 
program. Federal contractors are provided management assistance in 
complying with their veterans affirmative action and reporting 
obligations. Staff also administer the veterans reemployment rights 
program and investigate complaints from veterans concerning denial of 
Federal veterans preference. 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

reemployment rights of members of the Reserve or National Guard.
