OFCCP Director heads to White House.
Jenny Yang has been Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs since the beginning of the Biden Administration. Ms. Yang announced this week that she is departing the OFCCP to become Deputy Assistant to the President for Racial Justice and Equity at the White House Domestic Policy Council.
During her tenure at the OFCCP, the agency rescinded religious exemptions and regulatory enforcement schemes codified during the Trump administration. The OFCCP also increased focus on contractors' annual compensation evaluations and proposed significant changes to the Scheduling Letter and Itemized Listing.
Michele Hodge, Deputy Director, will serve as OFCCP Acting Director until a Director is named.
