Hunton Employment & Labor Perspectives

The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) performs compliance audits reviewing numerous federal contractors’ affirmative action plans and practices on a yearly basis.  A number of organizations are reporting that the OFCCP will be sending out courtesy letters (known as corporate scheduling announcement letters, or “CSAL”) notifying employers that they have been selected for such an audit as early as next week.  With the changing landscape of the OFCCP’s affirmative action plan requirements and regulations, it is important that employers be on the lookout for such letters and begin preparations for the audit as soon as possible.
