DOL/OFCCP RIN: 1250-AA13 Publication ID: Fall 2024 
Title: Modernizing Affirmative Action and Nondiscrimination Obligations for Federal Contractors and Subcontractors  
Abstract:

The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) will propose changes to modernize its Executive Order 11246, Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974 (VEVRAA); and section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 503) compliance programs for federal supply and service contractors and subcontractors, including but not limited to recordkeeping and affirmative action program obligations.  In addition, the proposal will consider modifications in light of Executive Order 13988, Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation. OFCCP will also be making technical corrections, including but not limited to updating outdated OMB control numbers for OFCCP information collection requirements and updating the outdated jurisdictional thresholds for Section 503 and VEVRAA. The thresholds were adjusted for inflation by the Federal Acquisition Regulation Council, pursuant to section 807 of the Ronald Reagan National Defense Authorization Act, codified at 41 U.S.C. 1908. In June 2022, OFCCP conducted listening sessions with stakeholders on its supply and service program. OFCCP will consider the feedback from these listening sessions in this rulemaking.
