Placement Goals
If a goal is not met our evaluation considers:Hires, promotions, applicants,
And often most importantly, the listing of job vacancies with targeted community and recruitment organizations.

Outreach For Individuals with Disabilities
The contractor should establish meaningful contacts with appropriate social service agencies/organizations for individuals with disabilities for advice and the referral of potential employees.
![Page 17: RICHMOND DISTRICT OFFICE Presents An Overview of Compliance](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56812c2e550346895d90b31d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Accessing Good Faith Effort
In determining if a contractor establishedmeaningful contacts, we assess itscommunications both to and fromappropriate community organizations during the period under evaluation.
In many instances we contact the community organizations for verification.
![Page 18: RICHMOND DISTRICT OFFICE Presents An Overview of Compliance](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56812c2e550346895d90b31d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Lack of Appropriate Outreach
Failure to take affirmative action, as a result of not seeking referrals from community
organizations would be a violation.
That violation would require resolution and monitoring by OFCCP.
![Page 19: RICHMOND DISTRICT OFFICE Presents An Overview of Compliance](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56812c2e550346895d90b31d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Lack of Appropriate Outreach
Resolution would be obtained through alegally binding agreement, which specifies the steps the contractor will take in modifying its recruitment efforts to come intocompliance.
![Page 20: RICHMOND DISTRICT OFFICE Presents An Overview of Compliance](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56812c2e550346895d90b31d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Lack of Appropriate Outreach
One of the primary steps in the process of resolution is linking the contractor to community and recruitment organizations who might provide qualified applicants from the group for which affirmative action isnecessary.
OFCCP calls this process Linkage.
