Speaking before the Practicing Law Institute in New York on Feb. 3, Patricia Shiu, director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, discussed the future of the OFCCP. Shiu noted there will be “a continued emphasis on systemic enforcement … and an ongoing commitment to excellence, professionalism and integrity in all of our endeavors.” More than 200 people attended the meeting or listened to remarks via webcast. Earlier in the week, Shiu addressed the Agency Liaison Meeting at the American Bar Association Section of the Labor and Employment Law Equal Employment Opportunity Committee in Washington, D.C., where she was joined by Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Chair Jenny Yang and Justin Levitt, the Department of Justice’s Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Civil Rights Division, to discuss interagency coordination. The two events came on the heels of an announcement that the EEOC will propose revisions to the Employer Information Report requiring employers with 100 or more workers to report pay data.Read the actual proposal here. Comments on this notice must be submitted on or before April 1, 2016.
