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.
