Bank of America Settles Hiring Discrimination Case with OFCCP

While OFCCP has historically provided compliance assistance at both the national and regional levels, the Government Accounting Office’s (GAO) Strengthening Oversight Could Improve Federal Contract Nondiscrimination Compliance report,1 published September 2016, recommended that OFCCP review its compliance assistance efforts to identify options for enhancing contractors’ understanding of their nondiscrimination and affirmative action requirements. To ensure that OFCCP considered contractors’ perspectives in addressing this GAO recommendation, OFCCP conducted three Compliance Assistance Town Halls on September 19 (Washington, DC), September 26 (San Francisco, CA), and September 28 (Chicago, IL) 2017. These sessions were later followed by three stakeholder meetings in Washington, DC in January 2018.
