US Department of Labor looks to modernize, implement reform agenda

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Labor will begin taking actions to develop a comprehensive agency reform plan, as directed by guidance(link is external) from the Office of Management and Budget. The goal is to create a more efficient and accountable department that works for job seekers, workers, employers and retirees across the U.S.

The resulting Government-wide Reform Plan will be delivered as part of the president’s Fiscal Year 2019 budget and will draw on three primary sources: Agency Reform Plans, OMB-coordinated crosscutting reforms and public input.

The department encourages all citizens to share their ideas on improving the government at https://whitehouse.gov/reorganizing-the-executive-branch(link is external).
