Today, on November 11, we honor those who defended our country on Veterans Day. OutSolve thanks this nation’s Veterans for their courage, service, and sacrifice.

This is also a time for federal contractors to ensure equal employment opportunities in the civilian workplace for protected veterans, veterans with disabilities, and spouses of protected veterans. The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) provides a host of resources and compliance assistance to help federal contractors comply with their legal obligations under the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA). Veterans also have access to these resources to learn about their rights in the workplace.
