Guidelines, Section 5333(b), Federal Transit Law

The Office of the American Workplace proposes to revise the guidelines concerning its procedures for administering Section 5333(b) of the Federal Transit law, commonly known as Section 13(c). These revised guidelines will replace the existing guidelines in their entirety. Section 5333(b) requires that certain protective arrangements for employees be in place as a condition of Federal financial assistance for transit projects. The proposed changes will allow the agency to certify that the requisite protections are in place in a more expeditious manner and will make the certification process more predictable for the parties involved.
