How are Contractors Selected for Audit?

OFCCP uses the annual EEO-1 report to select a subset of contractors for compliance evaluations. Typically between 2,000 and 4,000 establishments are selected every year. The latest selection system is called the Federal Contractor Selection System (FCSS) that uses data from 10 years of past compliance evaluations to identify and characterize relationships between the EEO-1 and findings of violations during compliance evaluations.

The FCSS model uses seventeen factors comparing the workforce profile of each establishment to those of other establishments in the same industry classification and also to the labor market data from the 2000 Census.

This model attempts to identify those establishments with a higher likelihood of discrimination. OFCCP will not reveal the factors used in their mathematical model and no statistics have been released ad

dressing whether the model actually identifies those establishments most in need of a compliance evaluation. Anecdotal evidence from various contractors, attorneys and the results from compliance evaluations question the effectiveness of the FCSS system.
