2018 Survey builds on the 2008 survey which OFCCP uses to engage and inform contractors through compliance assistance and during compliance evaluations.

The DOL’s Office of Disability Policy (ODEP) published the results of its 2018 Survey of Employer Policies on the Employment of People with Disabilities.  The survey provides an overview of employer’s attitudes towards people with disabilities as well as their efforts to employ individuals with disabilities.  The survey updates a 2008 survey which provided nationwide data that OFCCP used to create compliance assistance tools.
