Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements Under the Vietnam Era Veteransâ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as Amended
Extension without change of a currently approved collection
Recordkeeping and reporting obligations incurred by Federal contractors under the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974 are necessary to substantiate compliance with nondiscrimination and affirmative action requirements enforced by OFCCP.
US Code:
38 USC 4212
Name of Law: Vietnam Era Veteransâ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, amended (VEVRAA)
The decrease in burden hours for this information collection is primarily a result of OFCCPâs decision to use data from the Employer Information Report EEO-1 (EEO-1 Report) to determine the number of covered federal contractors and contractor establishments. Previously, OFCCP averaged data from multiple sources but that methodology resulted in an overestimation of the number of affected contractors. The EEO-1 Report provides a more accurate estimate of contractors and establishments covered by VEVRAA.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
