About Affirmative Action Plans
We frequently receive inquiries from clients regarding their obligations under the Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action regulations. The number of organizations covered by EEO/AA regulation is much greater than many people realize.
Who is covered?
Federal Level: Federal primary contractors or their sub-contractors with contracts expected to generate
$50,000 in billings in a twelve month period who have 50 or more employees must have an Affirmative Action
Plan in place within 90 days of the initial contract award.
Many states, counties and municipalities have similar regulations with a variety of threshold levels and
specific requirements for their contractors' plans. The State of Minnesota uses a "40/100" rule.
What is required?
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on age, sex, religion, color,
and national origin. This has been expanded over the years to include additional "protected classes"
of applicants and employees.
The specific requirements vary by government entity and include categories such as sexual orientation,
status relative to the receipt of government assistance, individuals with a disability, and certain veterans.
Executive Order 11246 and the Department of Labor's regulations require federal contractors to take
affirmative action to hire and promote females and minorities. An acceptable plan will include plan
language for persons with a disability, covered veterans, special disabled veterans, minorities and females.
