The deadline approaches for contractors and subcontractors to incorporate the voluntary self-identification form

OFCCP reminds federal contractors and subcontractors that they have until August 4, 2020 to incorporate the updated Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form (CC-305) into their applicant and human resources systems and processes.

Based on stakeholder feedback, OFCCP streamlined and revised the form. The updated form should increase the response rate of applicants and employees who voluntarily self-identify their disability status. Doing so will aid contractors in developing programs to increase the utilization of people with disabilities in their workforce.

OFCCP is committed to providing proactive, meaningful compliance assistance to help contractors solicit disability status information from applicants and employees, and to meet their equal employment opportunity obligations. For more guidance on implementing the form, please see OFCCP’s frequently asked questions on the topic.
