Final Rule for WIOA Effectiveness in Serving Employers Performance Indicator
On September 14, 2022, two related Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRMs) were announced, seeking public comments on proposed rules to establish a definition of Effectiveness in Serving Employers.
The U.S. Departments of Labor and Education announced a Joint proposed rule to incorporate a standard definition for the Effectiveness in Serving Employers Performance indicator into the regulations for WIOA core programs. The Labor Department’s WIOA core programs are Adult, Dislocated Worker, Youth, and Employment Service. WIOA core programs in the Department of Education are the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act program and the Vocational Rehabilitation program authorized under the Rehabilitation Act.
The Department of Labor announced a separate NPRM seeking public comments on a proposed rule that would use “Retention with the Same Employer” as the criterion to measure Effectiveness in Serving Employers for four DOL-administered WIOA title I non-core programs: Indian and Native American Programs, Job Corps, YouthBuild, and the National Farmworker Jobs Program.
The Final Rules are published in the Federal Register.
Performance Information Collection Requests
Update regarding ICRs: WIOA Common Performance Reporting OMB Control No. 1205-0526 and DOL-only Performance Accountability, Information, and Reporting System OMB Control No. 1205-0521
Two 60-day FRNs were published on September 28, 2023, which indicated both ICRs (OMB Control No. 1205-0521 & 1205-0526) were a renewal with revisions. However, due to concurrent rulemaking that directly impacted the DOL-only collection, the Department updated both ICRs to be renewals without revisions (except those resulting from the rulemaking). This update was required to avoid version control issues and to ensure the public is effectively informed about collection changes associated with the rulemaking process.
Rulemaking has concluded and both ICRs have been renewed, so the Department has restarted the process to incorporate the revisions that were originally part of the 60-day FRNs published on September 28, 2023.

The comments received during the prior 60-day comment period will be considered as a part of the new 60-day comment periods. Although the prior comments will be considered, the Department encourages commenters to review the ICR documents, as additional changes have been added, and then resubmit their comments to ensure accuracy and consideration.
Proposed changes can be viewed on the Public Comment Period for Performance ICRs page.
