Workplace Application: Covered federal contractors are required to comply with a variety of nondiscrimination and affirmative action requirements as a condition of receiving federal funds. Failure to comply may result in monetary sanctions or even debarment.
OFCCP has literally thrown out the old enforcement “Rule Book.” In this session, we’ll explore OFCCP’s changing approach to investigating employer compliance with veterans and disability regulations. We’ll also discuss the agency’s cutting-edge methodology to investigate compliance with the regulations, adverse impact and compensation in compliance reviews. Finally, we’ll provide practical advice how to self-audit employment practices and to respond to OFCCP audit questions.
