Week ending May 21: Labor Department publishes 8 notices

There were eight notices published by the Labor Department in week ending May 21, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Employment and Training Administration (ETA) Program Year (PY) 2022 Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Section 167, National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) Grantee Allotments, was submitted on May 20, 2022.

The Labor Department published 10 the week before, marking a 20 percent decrease.

The Department provides billions in unemployment insurance, which peaked around 2011 though spending had declined before the pandemic. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, claimed the Department funds "ineffective and duplicative services" and overregulates the workplace.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
