Functional AAP on Hold by OFCCP until Further Notice

OFCCP is not accepting any new requests to develop or to renew Functional Affirmative Action Program (FAAP) agreements at this time. The agency is currently reviewing its policies regarding the FAAP process. Until such guidance is issued, contractors without FAAP agreements should continue to develop and maintain establishment-based AAPs.

Contractors with approved FAAP agreements should maintain their functional unit AAPs and operate under their current FAAP agreement. If significant changes occur in the normal order of business for contractors with existing FAAP agreements, such as mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, and recent changes, these should be reported to the FAAP Director for appropriate actions, as per the agreement. OFCCP will notify contractors when new guidance is published.

In a recent Keynote Speech to the National Industry Liaison Group, OFCCP Director Patricia Shiu informed that Jim Pierce, OFCCP Deputy Director of Operations, will be leading a discussion on OFCCP's FAAP program. She will be examining whether this program should continue, and if so in what form.
