Office of the Assistant Secretary for Veterans' Employment and Training Service, Department of Labor |
- Section Number: 61-250.10
- Section Name: What reporting requirements apply to Federal contractors and subcontractors, and what specific wording must the reporting requirements contract clause contain?
Each contractor or subcontractor described in Sec. 61-250.1 must
submit reports in accordance with the following reporting clause, which
must be included in each of its covered government contracts or
subcontracts (and modifications, renewals, or extensions thereof if not
included in the original contract). Such clause is considered as an
addition to the equal opportunity action clause required by 41 CFR 60-
250.5. The reporting requirements clause is as follows:
Employment Reports on Special Disabled Veterans, Veterans of the
Vietnam Era, and Other Protected Veterans
(a) The contractor or subcontractor agrees to report at least
annually, as required by the Secretary of Labor, on:
(1) The number of current employees in each job category and at
each hiring location who are special disabled veterans, the number
who are veterans of the Vietnam era, and the number who are other
protected veterans;
(2) The total number of new employees hired during the period
covered by the report, and of that total, the number who are special
disabled veterans, the number who are veterans of the Vietnam era,
and the number who are other protected veterans; and
(3) The maximum number and minimum number of employees of such
contractor at each hiring location during the period covered by the
report.
(b) The above items must be reported by completing the form
entitled ``Federal Contractor Veterans'' Employment Report VETS-
100.''
(c) VETS-100 reports must be submitted no later than September
30 of each year beginning September 30, 2001. The eligibility period
(the period during which an employer received a Federal contract)
for this report and all subsequent reports is the calendar year
(January 1 through December 31) that precedes the year in which the
report is submitted.
(d) The employment activity report required by paragraphs (a)(2)
and (a)(3) of this clause must reflect total new hires and maximum
and minimum number of employees during the 12-month period preceding
the ending date that the contractor selects for the current
employment report required by paragraph (a)(1) of this clause.
Contractors may select an ending date: (1) As of the end of any pay
period during the period July 1 through August 31 of the year the
report is due; or (2) as of December 31, if the contractor has
previous written approval from the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission to do so for purposes of submitting the Employer
Information Report EEO-1,Standard Form 100 (EEO-1 Report).
(e) The number of veterans reported according to paragraph (a)
above must be based on data known to contractors and subcontractors
when completing their VETS-100 Reports. Contractors' and
subcontractors' knowledge of veterans status may be obtained in a
variety of ways, including, in response to an invitation to
applicants to self-identify in accordance with 41 CFR 60-250.42,
voluntary self-disclosures by protected incumbent veterans, or
actual knowledge of an employee's veteran status by a contractor or
subcontractor. Nothing in this paragraph (e) relieves a contractor
from liability for discrimination under 38 U.S.C. 4212. (OMB No.
1293-0005)
