New Year New Compliance: What to Focus on in 2016.

The year 2015 proved to be a busy one for Office of Federal Contract Compliance (OFCCP), and in 2016 the agency shows no signs of slowing down. Between the first full year of compliance for most federal contractors under the new Protected Veteran (PV) and Individuals with Disabilities (IWD) regulations, various proposed regulatory changes, an election year, and more in-depth audit activity, 2016 will be a year full of change for both OFCCP and contractors. January 2016 Affirmative Action Plans (AAPs) will be the first plans for many federal contractors that are subject to all requirements under the revised PV and IWD regulations. Both regulations became effective March 24, 2014. Contractors with affirmative action plan dates after that date, through March 2015, were considered in their “transition year” of compliance.
