Mr. John McKeon:

Last year, we looked at the cases of just over 1,000 workers across just over 300 employers. We do about 12,000 to 13,000 other employment reviews in the normal work on scope with our normal inspectors, where we would also be examining issues of employment status. That specific unit is taking a targeted look at sectors that are of concern and that is what we have looked at.
