📋OSC Seeks Comments on ADR Program Information Collection

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) is seeking public comment on an extension of a currently approved information collection activity for its Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Program, approved under OMB Control Number 3255-0008. OSC has revised its survey approach and now administers a single survey to mediation participants immediately following the conclusion of their ADR session. This updated format replaces the prior two-part survey process (initial and follow-up). The survey is used to assess program effectiveness, gather participant feedback, and identify areas for improvement. Participation is voluntary and responses are submitted anonymously.
