The fall season brings change... temperature, color of leaves and our schedules. This year,
however, maybe you've noticed another change? The Department of Labor's announcing the release
of the Final Rule for federal contractors related to Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment
Assistance Act of 1974 (VEVRAA) and Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
In the wake of this announcement, DirectEmployers Association stands ready to help you understand
these regulations and create solutions to help you meet these new requirements.
Here are just a few of the initiatives we have in place at this time:
· DirectEmployers will continue collaborating with our partner NASWA to improve the National
Labor Exchange (NLx) compliance solution. If you have any questions or concerns, don't
hesitate to reach out to your Membership Development representative at (866) 268-6206.
· A webinar featuring partner organization Pinnacle, and introducing new partner the
Poses Family Foundation, as well as member companies Alaska Airlines, and Cardinal Health
and representatives from DirectEmployers. · Our Employers Connect meeting in Indianapolis,
IN on September 17th will include a session on the new VEVRAA and Section 503 rules.
· A webinar with the National Association of State Workforce Agencies (NASWA), the National
Labor Exchange (NLx) and the Recruitment Regulatory Compliance Committee (RRCC).
· A webinar featuring John C. Fox, Esq., who will educate all of our Members on what
should be done now to prepare for full compliance once the regulations are published in the
federal register and receive final OMB approval based on record-keeping and paperwork requirements.
· Comprehensive presentations at DirectEmployers Annual Meeting & Conference in October
Please watch for communications on exact webinar dates and full descriptions of all upcoming
presentations. HRCI credit is pending.
