Assessment (PIA) conducted for the Office of Workforce Security (OWS)
Unemployment Insurance (UI) Major Application (MA). The Department of Labor
(DOL) is responsible for ensuring proper protections of the information

aggregate data from State Workforce Agencies and produces reports based on that
data.

Information System Security Officers, Project Manager, ETA Privacy Officer, and
System Analyst. The System Security Plan, Risk Assessment and the OWS software
program specifications documents were used to complete this assessment.
