Who enforces compliance with the Order?
OFCCP and the OLMS share enforcement authority. OFCCP will conduct physical inspections of contractor establishments (and, as appropriate, of contractor web sites) to determine whether covered contractors are in compliance with the Order. OFCCP will also inspect covered contractors’ subcontracts and purchase orders, and investigate complaints that a covered contractor is not in compliance with the Order. OLMS is responsible, primarily, for taking any necessary administrative enforcement action and/or imposing any penalties and sanctions for noncompliance with EO 13496.
