Why does OFCCP want to revise its Section 4212 (often referred to as VEVRAA) regulations?
The framework articulating contractors Section 4212 responsibilities has not changed since the implementing regulations were first published in 1976. Yet today, increasing numbers of veterans are returning from duty in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere around the world only to face substantial obstacles in finding employment. Strengthening our Section 4212 regulations is an important step towards addressing this problem and increasing employment opportunities for protected veterans.
