Reminder: OFCCP’s Contractor Portal Certification Due by June 30, 2022

Jun 13, 2022

OVERVIEW: Reminder that Federal contractors are required to use OFCCP’s Contractor Portal to register and certify that they have developed and maintained affirmative action programs by June 30, 2022.  Federal contractors should take all the necessary steps to meet the June 30th deadline.

Contractor Portal


The Contractor Portal requires supply and service federal contractors and subcontractors to register and, by June 30, 2022, federal contractors and subcontractors must certify whether they have affirmative action programs in place at each establishment or for each functional or business unit as of the certification date. New contractors and subcontractors will have 120 days from entering a covered contract to prepare written affirmative action plans in accordance with OFCCP regulations. 


OFCCP Guidance on Contractor Registration and Certification


To register, organizations must create an account on the portal. The initial user must provide basic information on their organization and the portal can populate information for the organization based on the organization’s 2018 EEO-1 Reports. Organizations with more than one site will be required to provide information about their headquarters and each establishment. Those entities that have had mergers, acquisitions, or closed establishments may have to contact the agency to assist with the establishment list. The initial user who will be the administrative user can add additional users with either administrator privileges or access only to certain establishments.   


OFCCP will send an email to the company contact of organizations self-identified as federal contractors or subcontractors on the 2018 EEO-1 Report. However, all covered contractors and subcontractors are required to register and certify on the portal even if they do not receive an email from OFCCP.   


OFCCP guidance has been posted on the Contractor Portal Landing Page, and the landing page includes a User Guide and Updated Frequently Asked Questions


Next Steps


All supply and service federal contractors and subcontractors must register and certify with OFCCP that they have affirmative action programs including written affirmative action plans by the June 30th deadline.
