INTRODUCTION TO THE PIA
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to describe the Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) conducted for the E-Grants System. The Department of Labor (DOL) is responsible for ensuring proper protections of the information contained within its information systems, including personally identifiable information (PII).
One objective of the PIA is to assist in identifying personal information and addressing information privacy when planning, developing, implementing, and operating individual agency information management systems and integrated DOL information systems.
The following nine agencies submit grant data to E-Grants:
- ETA - Employment & Training Administration
- OASAM – Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management
- MSHA – Mine Safety and Health Administration
- BLS – Bureau of Labor Statistics
- WB – Women’s Bureau
- ODEP – Office of Disability Employment Policy
- VETS – Veterans’ Employment and Training Service
- ILAB – Bureau of International Labor Affairs

The E-Grants system will serve as a DOL-wide back office solution for review and management of grant applications and awards.
