Notice
Summary
The Department of Labor (DOL) is issuing this notice to clarify the status of OMB Control Number 1205-0521, DOL-Only Performance Accountability, Information, and Reporting System. Following publication notice dated January 7, 2026, which concluded on February 19, 2026, in RegInfo.gov, the Department determined that the approved revisions should have been processed through the standard Paperwork Reduction Act notice and comment process. As a result, the Department does not intend to implement the revision reflected in the January 7, 2026, approval. Instead, the Department will continue to use the collection materials and reporting requirements in effect prior to that approval, dated December 2, 2025, which concluded on December 11, 2025, while it develops and submits a revision package through the standard PRA process, including publication of the applicable Federal Register notices.

This helps patients and providers understand bills better and speeds up fixing disputes, with no extra costs for most people.

Good news for businesses and workers: the Department of Labor won’t raise any fines or penalties in 2026 because the usual inflation data wasn’t available. This means all civil penalties stay the same starting May 27, 2026. So, no surprise cost hikes this year—just steady rules and steady fees!

The Department of Labor is proposing clear rules to decide when two companies share responsibility for workers’ rights under key laws like minimum wage, family leave, and farmworker protections. This change helps workers and employers understand who’s in charge and makes enforcement fair and consistent across the country. If finalized, these rules could affect many businesses and workers starting soon, with potential impacts on compliance costs and legal clarity.

Previous: 2026-15127, Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal Communications Commission
As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the following information collections. Comments are requested concerning: whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the information shall have practical utility; the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on the respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and ways to further reduce the information collection burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees. The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a valid OMB control number.
