So, Laura, why don't we start there? What happened? What is this change?

Yep.

Well, this certainly is a timely topic because things have changed, as we will discuss.

But what I think if there's one thing that I want everyone to walk away from our discussion today is the reminder that federal contractor affirmative action action obligations have not disappeared.

While they have changed dramatically, there are still actions in place and requirements that contractors need to be aware of.

So what has just happened is back on August 21st, OFCCP published a final rule making changes to the regulations that were implementing Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act.

And these were proposed changes that we've been waiting for months, months for OFCCB to take action on.

So what's the bottom line then in terms of ensuring that contractors and subcontractors remain in compliance? What should they do?
