The New OFCCP Compliance Review: What To Expect When Scheduled For A Review In 2012

 

The OFCCP is strengthening their compliance enforcement process and so should you!! During this program, you will learn about the OFCCP's increasing attention to all aspects of the federal contractor's affirmative action programs, and what to include in the desk audit response to respond to anticipated questions and concerns. We also will discuss the OFCCP's continued attention on compensation and its use of statistical analysis to identify areas of concern. We will provide guidance on responding to requests for information about potential issues identified by the OFCCP.

 

This is a "must not miss" program if your company has received a Corporate

Scheduling Announcement Letter (CSAL) for 2012.
