On August 19, the Federal Register published a Notice that OFCCP
received a request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) from
the Center for Investigative Reporting (CIR). CIR is seeking all
federal prime contractors’ and first-tier subcontractors’
EEO-1 Type 2 Consolidated Reports for the period 2016-2020. The
Type 2 Report includes data for all employees of the company (i.e.,
all employees at headquarters as well as all establishments)
categorized by race/ethnicity, sex, and job category.
Typically, OFCCP contacts contractors directly when it receives
a FOIA request for their records. Given the breadth of CIR’s
request, contractors should not wait for a direct
communication from OFCCP before submitting objections. Contractors
who oppose the release of their Type 2 reports must file objections
with the OFCCP by September 19, 2022.
The Federal Register Notice includes instructions
for submitted objections and a list of specific questions
contractors must address in their objections. OFCCP has created the
Submitter Notice Response Portal to collect
objections from contractors and their representatives.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
