DOL requests comments on Workforce Recruitment Program information collection
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
The Department of Labor is asking the public to comment on its paperwork for the Workforce Recruitment Program, a federal talent database for students and recent graduates with disabilities. This notice does not change the program rules, but it does mean the form and reporting process are under review by the Office of Management and Budget. For employers, especially federal contractors and private-sector companies that use the program, the practical point is to watch for any future changes to the application or data collection process. Comments are due by June 1, 2026, and the current OMB control number is 1230-0017.
