What happens if an employer who receives federal funds such as UMKC does not meet Affirmative Action requirements?
A. Failure to comply with Executive Order 11246 and its nondiscrimination and affirmative action provisions is a violation of an employer’s contract with the government. A contractor in violation of EO 11246 may have its contract canceled, terminated, or suspended, and the contractor may be debarred (i.e. declared ineligible for future government contracts).
