Companies often ask, why were we selected for an OFCCP audit - we don't have a federal contract? To answer that question, most need only to review their own documents.
Each year, entities with at least 100 employees are obligated to complete an EEO-1 form. Question (C) (3) asks whether they have 50 or more employees and a federal contract for more than $50,000. If any one facility in the employer's organization answers yes, then compliance may be required for the entire organization. Moreover, the OFCCP's presumptive position is that every establishment with the same parent company is a covered contractor.
Compliance officers also use the Federal Procurement Data System, which lists contracts entered into by the federal government to confirm coverage.
Most hospitals and financial institutions, such as banks, credit unions and mortgage lenders are required to have written affirmative action plans if they have 50 or more employees.
Applicable regulations: Executive Order 11246, §503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Vietnam Era Veterans Adjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended.
