The Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) has published a Notice that it intends to seek approval from the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to begin using a new pre-complaint intake form (CC-390) that it wants a complainant to complete before filing a formal discrimination complaint (Form CC-4) with OFCCP. As required by the federal Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), OFCCP is also seeking OMB approval to extend use of the Form CC-4, with minor changes. According to OFCCP, a pre-complaint inquiry process using the new form will assist the agency in determining important threshold issues, such as coverage, timeliness, or jurisdiction, before a formal complaint is filed. OFCCP says that this process will be more efficient and better conserve limited investigative resources than the current complaint-filing process.
