Can the department provide assistance in developing affirmative action plans?
The department can provide a business with a manual on how to develop an affirmative action plan and answer question during preparation. Also, we have a brochure explaining the contract compliance program. Does a business that is in compliance with the Minneapolis Civil Rights Department, the St. Paul Human Rights Department or the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs need a certificate of compliance to do business with the state? Yes. However, the department can issue a certificate based on a business’ compliance with these human rights agencies.
