Point of Contact for Complaints Concerning Information Quality

If you believe the Bureau of Labor Statistics has disseminated information that does not meet its guidelines or those of the U.S. Department of Labor or Office of Management and Budget, and you wish to file a formal complaint, you may send your complaint by mail or email.

Complainants should:

  • Identify themselves and indicate where and how they can be reached.
  • Identify, as specifically as possible, the information in question.
  • Indicate how they are affected by the information about which they are complaining.
  • Carefully describe the nature of the complaint, including an explanation of why they believe the information does not comply with OMB, Department of Labor, or BLS guidelines.
  • Describe the change requested and the reason why the agency should make the change.

Failure to include this information may result in not receiving a response to the complaint or greatly reducing the usefulness or timeliness of any response. Complainants should be aware that they bear the burden of establishing that they are affected persons and showing the need and justification for the correction they are seeking, including why the information being complained about does not comply with applicable guidelines.

Appeals

If you file a formal complaint concerning BLS information quality and are subsequently dissatisfied with the resolution of the complaint, you may submit an appeal to the Information Quality Review Board by mail or email.
