The Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) is seeking public comments on proposed changes and an extension of the authority for the "Nonmonetary Determination Activities Report." These changes aim to reduce paperwork and improve reporting accuracy by revising definitions and categories used in state reports on unemployment insurance benefits. The proposed modifications include adding demographic information and clarifying reporting categories, which are expected to have little additional impact since states already collect this data. Comments are welcome until March 17, 2025, and will be considered in the final decision submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
Simple Explanation
