On September 7, 2018, the Office of Federal Contract Compliance
Programs (OFCCP) sent a second round of Corporate Scheduling
Announcement Letters (CSALs) to 750 contractor
establishments.1 The CSAL serves as OFCCP's
"heads up" letter to a contractor that its establishment
is on the current compliance evaluation scheduling list.
Under the CSAL Update published on OFCCP's website,
the letters give contractors a 45-day courtesy notice period prior
to OFCCP's sending out the official compliance evaluation
scheduling letter. Under this approach, we do not expect OFCCP to
mail official letters until October 22, 2018. Once a contractor
receives the official scheduling letter, the contractor will have
the standard 30 days to submit its Affirmative Action Program (AAP)
and required supporting data. As a result, OFCCP is providing
contractors on the current scheduling list with at least 75 days of
advance notice.
