The regulations implementing the laws enforced by OFCCP - Executive Order 11246, Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act, and the affirmative action provisions of the Vietnam Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act - require contractors "to post in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment" notices setting forth the provisions of the nondiscrimination clauses. See 41 CFR 60-1.4(a) (1), 60-250.5(a) 9 and 60-741.5(a) 4. The EEO notice provision in the regulations implementing Section 503 further states that applicants and employees with disabilities "are to be informed of the content of the notice," and that this could be accomplished, for example, by having the notice read to a visually impaired person, or lowering a posted notice so that it might be read by a person in a wheelchair. Affixing the "Equal Opportunity is the Law Poster" prepared by either OFCCP or the EEOC in a physical location (e.g., a wall or bulletin board) where it can be easily seen by employees as well as the applicants will satisfy the notice posting requirements. You can obtain a copy of the EEO poster on-line.
As part of a review of contractors Affirmative Action Plan during the on-site review of facilities Affirmative Action practices, OFCCP will make a physical inspection to ensure that these posters are displayed according to the requirements listed above.
Can a contractor meet the requirements by posting the notice electronically rather than in physical paper format?
The requirement in the current regulations is that the EEO notices be "post[ed] in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment." "Posting in a conspicuous place" has a well-accepted interpretation, and the requirement is usually met when a paper copy of the notice is affixed to a wall or bulletin board customarily used for workplace notices. The Department of Labor agencies with workplace poster requirements and other Federal agencies are currently studying whether electronic means could be used to satisfy notice posting obligations. At present, however, physical posting of paper notices is required.
