What laws are handled by OFCCP?
The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) administers and enforces three equal employment opportunity laws: Executive Order 11246, as amended; Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended; and the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974 (38 U.S.C. 4212) (VEVRAA), as amended. These laws prohibit Federal contractors and subcontractors from discriminating on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or status as a qualified individual with a disability or protected veteran. They also require Federal contractors and subcontractors to take affirmative steps to ensure equal employment opportunity in their employment processes. OFCCP also shares responsibility with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) in enforcing Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
