CWC Publishes FAQs On Section 503 And VEVRAA Vendor Notification Obligations

December 18, 2025

What's New

CWC is pleased to offer a series of frequently asked questions addressing the obligation for federal contractors to notify covered subcontractors, vendors and suppliers of the organization’s affirmative action programs and policies and request “appropriate action on their part.” This communication is mandated under OFCCP regulations implementing Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act and Section 4212 of the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act.

What It Means

As we approach the end of the year, many contractors use this opportunity to ensure they are complying with the Section 503 and VEVRAA vendor and subcontractor notification requirements. CWC’s new resource addresses many of the FAQs we receive on this topic and offers possible compliance solutions.

What You Should Do

Contractors should review their plan for satisfying these compliance requirements. CWC’s upcoming webinar, Federal Disability and Veteran Compliance Requirements, will feature a more detailed discussion on complying with Section 503 and VEVRAA.
