Federal contractor compliance keeps moving, and the latest changes to Section 503 and VEVRAA are the newest example.
For HR, compliance, and talent acquisition teams, the question isn't whether to act; it's knowing what's actually changing versus what still applies. OutSolve, and legal partner, Roffman Horvitz, PLC led a session on why written plans, outreach, nondiscrimination, reasonable accommodation, and documentation remain required.
Please note that this webinar is intended for practical guidance and offers opinions, not legal advice.
By the end of the webinar, you will have:
- A clear understanding of what to keep, and what to update
- A practical framework for modernizing Section 503 compliance programs
- Greater clarity on how to maintain VEVRAA requirements alongside the redesigned Section 503 framework
- A better understanding of the role outreach and documentation play in demonstrating ongoing compliance
- Actionable next steps for reviewing current processes and preparing their organization for the new requirements
Attendees will leave with a clearer path forward and a practical understanding of how to keep their Section 503 and VEVRAA programs compliant, effective, and defensible as the regulatory framework evolves.
