A member of the Labour Department landing crew is handed over by Veteran Trump.

President-elect Donald Trump's  transition team  at the  Department of Labor includes  two top agency officials from his first term and a former  head of the federal agency that adjudicates labor disputes  in the federal  civil service.

The Trump transition  team recently informed the Biden administration that Virginia  Labor Secretary Bryan Slater, former Equal Employment Opportunity Commission member Keith Sonderling and  Health Care Executive Thomas Beck  were helping to lead the handover at the Frances Perkins  building, according to two people familiar with the transition who were not authorized to speak  publicly.
Slater served as  the DOL's assistant secretary for administration and management under  Trump, and Sonderling was the head of the  wage and  hour division before being  appointed to the EEOC for a term that  ends earlier this  year.
Beck is vice president  of labor and employee relations at HCA Healthcare and was a member of the Federal Labor Relations  Board from  2008 to 2012 — including a  term as  chairman. He also  served as an  advisor during Trump's first-term transition, according to his LinkedIn  profile. Other members of the landing team are also expected  soon, one of the people said. Other agencies that deal with  labor issues, including the EEOC and  the National Labor Relations Board,  are also expected to have  their own landing  teams, although there  may be some overlap  in staffing between them.
"In accordance with the transition memorandum of  understanding with the Biden  administration, the White House is receiving the names of  individuals who will be part of the landing teams," transition  spokesman Brian Hughes said in an email.  "Members of the landing team are  in touch with their counterparts  in departments and  agencies."
Trump's transition  comes after a protracted  stalemate over the terms of several key  memos that outline the  conditions under which officials can access government offices, documents and other  items necessary to transfer power from one administration to  another.
Landing teams are also important for  guiding agencies in the early days of a  presidency, when the White House  expects the Senate to  pass the initial  confirmation process that will allow  the new leadership to  formally take  office. To that  end, Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-Ore.),  Trump's pick for  labor secretary, began meeting with several  Republican senators  on Wednesday as part of the confirmation process. Unlike other Trump  cabinet appointments, Chavez-DeRemer is  not expected to have  any trouble  getting Senate  approval — barring major revelations.
