      The Honorable Lee H. Hamilton
      Chairman, Subcommittee on Economic
        Goals and Intergovernmental Policy
      Joint Economic Committee
      Congress of the United States

      Dear Mr. Chairman:

           Subject: The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's
                     Progress in Meeting Goals Set Under the Paper-
                     work Reduction Act of 1980 (GAO/HRD-83-35)

           In response to your January 26, 1982, letter and subsequent
      discussions with your office, we obtained information on the
      paperwork burden imposed on the non-Federal sector by the Equal
      Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Specifically, your
      office requested information on the nature and extent of paper-
      work burden reductions claimed by EEOC under the Paperwork
      Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) and on EEOC's
      methodology for estimating its paperwork burden. We briefed
      your office on these matters in September 1982.

           Several changes have been made to EEOC's reporting require-
      ments that have resulted in paperwork burden reductions which
      exceed the reduction goals established by the act. In addition,
      EEOC officials told us that the agency intends to review its
      major data collection requirements-. Although the primary objec-
      tive of EEOC's review will be to reexamine the type of employ-
      ment data needed to effectively enforce equal employment oppor-
      tunity programs, minimizing the employer burden will also re-
      ceive consideration.



                                                              (209593)
