VETS - 100 Federal
Contracting Program Reporting In
accordance with Title 38, United States Code, Section
4212(d), the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Veterans'
Employment and Training Service (VETS) collects and
compiles data on the Federal Contractor Program
Veterans' Employment Report (VETS-100 Report) from
Federal contractors and subcontractors who receive
Federal contracts that meet the threshold amount of
$25,000 or more prior to December 1, 2003 or $100,000 on
or after December 1, 2003. The VETS-100 reporting cycle
begins annually on August 1 and ends September 30.
Companies are encouraged to submit reports online
through our website at http://vets.dol.gov/vets100.
However, reports that are mailed or submitted on a
properly formatted disk are still acceptable.
Prior to amendment by the Jobs for Veterans Act (JVA), the Vietnam Era
Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA) and its implementing regulations
at 41 CFR 61.250 required all contractors and subcontractors with Federal
contracts in excess of $25,000 to report their efforts toward hiring and
employing veterans in four specified categories: veterans of the Vietnam era,
special disabled veterans, other protected veterans and recently separated
veterans. JVA raised the VETS-100 reporting threshold from $25,000 to $100,000
for contracts awarded on or after December 1, 2003, and modified the report
categories of veterans to: disabled veterans, other protected veterans, Armed
Forces service medal veterans, and recently separated veterans (41 CFR 61.300 in
clearance). Additionally, JVA will require Federal contractors and
subcontractors to report the total number of all current employees in each job
category and at each hiring location.
NOTE: JVA amendments became effective December 1, 2003 and apply only to
contracts entered on or after December 1, 2003. Contracts awarded prior to this
date are governed by the current regulations and reporting categories as defined
by VEVRAA. Reporting on the new target groups of veterans is not yet in effect
pending regulatory clearance.
NOTE: VETS-100 has also discontinued the practice of mailing out pre-printed
reports to companies. If you are in need of a report, please visit the website
at http://vets.dol.gov/vets100 or contact the helpdesk at 301-306-6752 or
helpdesk@vets100.com.
The deadline for VETS-100 reporting is September 30, 2008.
