OFCCP Issues a New Certainty Directive

Certainty Directive helps contractors understand what OFCCP expects of them

OFCCP Issued Directive 2021-02, Certainty in OFCCP Policies and Practices, to reaffirm the agency’s commitment to a number of certainty initiatives and principles, and to establish a process to provide clarity and certainty in their policies and practices. The new Directive will help contractors know what OFCCP expects of them to assist in their compliance efforts.
