grant Background

About the Funding Agency

The United States Department of Labor (DOL) is a cabinet-level department of the U.S. federal government responsible for occupational safety, wage and hour standards, unemployment insurance benefits, reemployment services, and some economic statistics; many U.S. states also have such departments. The department is headed by the U.S. Secretary of Labor.

The purpose of the Department of Labor is to foster, promote, and develop the wellbeing of the wage earners,[3] job seekers, and retirees of the United States; improve working conditions; advance opportunities for profitable employment; and assure work-related benefits and rights. In carrying out this mission, the Department of Labor administers and enforces more than 180 federal laws and thousands of federal regulations. These mandates and the regulations that implement them cover many workplace activities for about 10 million employers and 125 million workers.

The United States maintains extensive infrastructure across transport, energy, water systems, digital networks, and industrial facilities to support the world’s largest economy. Infrastructure financing combines federal and state budgets, municipal funding, private investment, and public-private partnerships. Recent federal initiatives have increased investment in roads, bridges, rail, broadband, clean energy, and semiconductor-related infrastructure. Aging infrastructure, regional disparities, and climate resilience are major long-term planning challenges.
