OFCCP announced Friday it has received approval of a modified Self-Identification form for individuals with disabilities. One of the biggest changes is the form is now one page, instead of two.

OFCCP requested approval of the modified form from Office of Management and Budget (OMB) last year.

With this approval, OFCCP is giving contractors until August 4, 2020 to implement use of the new form in its applicant tracking and employee processes. The Agency has posted an update to their Frequently Asked Questions to assist with implementation.

As a reminder, contractors are required to solicit the voluntary self-identification of disability (and veteran) status of individuals at the application AND post-offer stages. Employers must also re-survey their incumbent populations at least once every 5 years.

DISCLAIMER: Because of the generality of this update, the information provided herein may not be applicable in all situations and should not be acted upon without specific legal advice based on particular situations.
