Frantz Ward – A leaked internal email from the newly-appointed Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) indicated that it may review information previously submitted by federal contractors during OFCCP audits to determine whether they should be investigated for discriminatory DEI practices. While it is currently unclear if the OFCCP will use this information to retroactively target individual employers and/or key sectors for concern, employers should take this opportunity to review their existing written documents for unlawful discrimination as defined by the current administration.
