2011 Affirmative Action Compliance Update

When was the last time you updated your narrative plan documents, your applicant self-identification forms, and your statistical and adverse impact analysis? If a letter from the OFCCP is in your mailbox today, are you confident that your plan will pass muster?

As you update your plan documents for 2011, take 90 minutes for an in-depth review of recent changes to the regulatory requirements and best practices that affect each aspect of your plan and related forms.

This live audio conference will help you identify areas for improvement in your plan and compliance efforts, and to become familiar with the OFCCP's current audit practices and regulatory focus.
