The Center for Workplace Compliance (CWC), our affiliated nonprofit membership association, has filed comments with OMB supporting a request from the Labor Department’s Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (DOL-VETS) to extend the Federal Contractor Veterans’ Employment Report (VETS-4212) for three more years. Approval from the White House Office of Management and Budget, which is expected soon, is the final step required by the Paperwork Reduction Act when a federal agency seeks to extend an existing information collection requirement.
In backing VETS’ request, CWC’s comments noted that federal contractors are familiar with the form and that its reporting process is relatively straightforward. The Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA) requires that covered federal contractors file the VETS-4212 annually.
