Washington, DC 20548 B-334653 October 17, 2022 The Honorable Patty Murray Chairwoman The Honorable Richard Burr Ranking Member Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions United States Senate The Honorable Bobby Scott Chairman The Honorable Virginia Foxx Ranking Member Committee on Education and Labor House of Representatives Subject: Department of Labor: Apprenticeship Programs, Labor Standards for Registration Pursuant to section 801(a)(2)(A) of title 5, United States Code, this is our report on a major rule promulgated by the Department of Labor (DOL) titled Apprenticeship Programs, Labor Standards for Registration (RIN: 1205-AC06). We received the rule on September 27, 2022. It was published in the Federal Register as a final rule on September 26, 2022. 87 Fed. Reg. 58269. The effective date is November 25, 2022. According to DOL, it is issuing this final rule to rescind its 2020 regulation that established a process under which the Department's Office of Apprenticeship was authorized to grant recognition to qualified third-party entities, known as Standards Recognition Entities, which in turn were authorized to evaluate and extend recognition to Industry-Recognized Apprenticeship Programs. DOL stated that the final rule also makes necessary conforming changes to the regulations governing the registration of apprenticeship programs by DOL. Enclosed is our assessment of DOL's compliance with the procedural steps required by section 801(a)(1)(B)(i) through (iv) of title 5 with respect to the rule. If you have any questions about this report or wish to contact GAO officials responsible for the evaluation work relating to the subject matter of the rule, please contact Shari Brewster, Assistant General Counsel, at (202) 512-6398.
