OWCP page update

On Office of Workers' Compensation Programs page, updated director name to Gary Steinberg, as acting director. Shelby Hallmark is no longer working for OWCP according to DOL Leadership Team page. http://www.dol.gov/dol/contact/contact-phonekeypersonnel.htm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rabaileyva (talk • contribs) 15:36, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Office of Inspector General wrong link

Office of Inspector General is linked to the wrong link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Inspector_General …at least it is not linking or referring to OIG of DOL but some other IG organization. Post comments on to keep the link or delete it.

Best Regards,

Suggested Updates

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

I propose the following updates to the page:

Update the information about the department’s ranking by the Partnership for Public Service because more recent data is available. According to the 2016 report, DOL is now tied at number 6 in the “large agency” category. Source: http://bestplacestowork.org/BPTW/rankings/overall/large
This statement is out of proportion/inaccurate and outdated and should be removed or modified: “In July 2011, the Department was rocked by the resignation of Ray Jefferson, Assistant Secretary for VETS, in a contracting scandal.”
Nancy Rooney never held the position of "Acting Deputy Secretary." A specific action is required to grant that title and that action was not taken in this case.

Declined. No conflict of interest was declared. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 03:41, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested Update

PBGC is not a corporation of the Dept of Labor. It is an independent Federal corporation under the oversight of a board composed of the Secretaries of Commerce, Labor, and Treasury. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.68.128.90 (talk) 15:46, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Al Stewart isn't the Secretary anymore (last sentence of the history section). — Preceding unsigned comment added by NathanScott97 (talk • contribs) 22:51, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
