Like all federal agencies, the Department of Labor (DOL) is required under the
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to disclose records requested in writing by
any person. However, agencies may withhold information pursuant to nine
exemptions and three exclusions contained in the statute. FOIA applies only to
federal agencies and does not create a right of access to records held by
Congress, the courts, or by state or local government agencies.
Consult the Department of Labor
Guide for Requesting FOIA Records and list of Individual
Components & Responsible FOIA Officials if you plan to make a FOIA
request. We also encourage you to browse
