Short Statement:
The proposed amendment to the currently approved information collection would impose a negligible burden on firms who are parties to charges filed under GINA. Newly formed firms may incur a small cost in time when installing and learning how to use their automated data collection systems. We estimate that there are 94,910 firms that would incur a start-up burden due to the Acts. Assuming 10 minutes of time per firm, we estimate that the total annual hour burden is 15,818 hours. In addition to the annual hour burden for new firms, the proposed amendment would impose a negligible burden on established firms who are parties to charges filed under GINA. We estimate that an employer that is a party to a GINA charge will need less than ten minutes to ensure that its existing system of retaining records pertinent to charges filed under Title VII and the ADA also includes records relating to charges filed under GINA. Assuming that 200 GINA charges will be filed and using a burden estimate of 10 minutes per charge, the annual aggregate burden would increase by only about 33 hours, to 15,851 hours. The total burden is less than the burden estimate of 16,002 that was used the last time this information collection was approved. The decrease is due to the use of more recent data on the number of new firm births.
