The Center for Workplace Compliance (CWC), our affiliated nonprofit membership association, has published a new resource explaining Kentucky’s affirmative action requirements for state contractors. Kentucky’s Office of Equal Employment Opportunity and Contract Compliance monitors compliance with these obligations and sends instructions to contractors on submitting affirmative action programs. CWC’s Guide to Kentucky State Contractor Affirmative Action Requirements can help CWC members navigate these requirements.
Many states and localities require companies seeking to do business with the jurisdiction to either maintain or submit an affirmative action program. Following the rescission of federal Executive Order 11246, many federal contractors have asked whether such state and local affirmative action requirements remain intact or whether AAP modifications will be needed. The answer varies by jurisdiction, so CWC will publish additional state and local resource guides.
