Short Statement:
Sample sizes for the nonmonetary and appeals quarterly reviews are determined by workload. Because of the change in workload, there has been a reclassification of some states from small to large resulting in a decrease in burden. For nonmonetary determination quality, sample sizes are set annually and depend on the volume of nonmonetary determinations reported to the Department of Labor on the ETA 9052 reports for the prior calendar year. States are classified as large or small based on this caseload. Large states are those that issued 100,000 or more nonmonetary determinations in the prior calendar year. Small states are those that issued fewer than 100,000 nonmonetary determinations in the prior calendar year. Large states will draw a minimum sample of 100 determinations (50 separation issues and 50 nonseparation issues) per quarter for review. Small states will draw a minimum sample of 60 determinations (30 separation issues and 30 nonseparation issues) per quarter for review. For lower authority appeals quality, all States (except those with a workload of more that 40,000 decisions in the prior fiscal year) will review a minimum of 20 randomly selected cases from each of the four quarters of the fiscal year. This is the minimum sample size needed for statistical validity of the results. The States, with annual workloads exceeding 40,000 cases will be required to select a 40 case sample per quarter to assure accurate results. The determination of sample size (20 or 40 cases per quarter) for each State for the calendar year will be made prior to end of the first quarter of each calendar year, based on the workload during the prior calendar year.
