How does the OFCCP enforce Executive Order 11246, and what happens if an employer is found non-compliant?

The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) is responsible for enforcing Executive Order 11246 through investigations, audits, and compliance reviews.

How Enforcement Works:

Compliance Reviews: The OFCCP conducts random audits and scheduled reviews to check if contractors meet their obligations.

Complaint Investigations: Employees or applicants can file complaints with the OFCCP if they experience discrimination.

On-Site Audits: If issues arise, the OFCCP may conduct on-site investigations to verify policies, interview employees, and assess hiring data.

Consequences of Non-Compliance:

❌ Remediation Plans: Non-compliant employers must create Corrective Action Plans (CAPs) to fix violations.

❌ Fines & Penalties: Failure to comply can lead to financial penalties or lawsuits.

❌ Contract Suspension/Debarment: The federal government can terminate or bar employers from future federal contracts until compliance is achieved.

To avoid penalties, contractors should conduct self-audits, update AAPs, and maintain clear documentation of hiring practices.
