Stakeholder Consultation Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) Department of Labor (DOL) DRAFT Strategic Plan FY 2010-2016 Draft: March 12, 2010
OFCCP Overview • OFCCP Mission: The purpose of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs is to enforce, for the benefit of job seekers and wage earners, the contractual promise of affirmative action and equal employment opportunity required of those who do business with the Federal government. • OFCCP Leadership: Patricia A. Shiu, Director • OFCCP Organization: • FY 2010 Authorized FTE: 788 • FY 2010 Resources: $ 105,386,000
OFCCP Goals OFCCP supports the following Department of Labor Strategic Goals and Outcome Goals: • Strategic Goal 1: Prepare workers for good jobs and ensure fair compensation. • Increase workers’ incomes and narrow wage and income inequality. • Help workers who are in low wage jobs or out of the labor market find a path into middle class jobs. • Strategic Goal 2: Assure fair and high quality work-life environments. • Break down barriers to fair and diverse workplaces so that every worker’s contribution is respected. • Ensure worker voice in the workplace.
OFCCP Results • We are measuring results differently. • In the future OFCCP will use a robust sampling model which will allow the Agency to better focus its resources. • OFCCP will measure and report its efforts within a statistically significant portion of the population of federal contractors that will allow the Agency to speak on the compliance rate, discrimination rate, and recidivism rate of the contractor universe. • How will we measure success? • Compliance: % of federal contractors found to be compliant with the requirements of OFCCP’s governing federal laws and executive order • Recidivism of Discrimination: % of contractor evaluations with discrimination findings when discrimination had been found in previous evaluations. • Do you believe these are the right outcomes? • Do you believe these are the right measures for those outcomes?
OFCCP Strategies • We are using new approaches. • OFCCP will broaden its enforcement efforts and will investigate and resolve cases of both individual and systemic discrimination to ensure that individuals as well as classes are given a fair chance in the workplace. • OFCCP will target recidivism of discrimination by contractors. • To increase compliance OFCCP will conduct corporate wide multi-establishment reviews as well as industry-specific reviews. • Our strategies to achieve these goals include: • Dedicating resources to enforce Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act, VEVRAA and E.O. 11246. • A renewed emphasis on conducting construction reviews. • Increasing resources to monitor contractors’ self-audit and self-correction of identified problems. • Strengthening relationships with the contractor community and developing a comprehensive stakeholder strategy. • Do these strategies make sense to you?
