The new service allows for complete outsourcing of a dealership’s affirmative action program including written program development, monitoring and OFCCP reporting. Under Executive Order 11246, federal contractors and subcontractors with 50 or more employees who have entered into at least one contract of $50,000 or more with the federal government must prepare and maintain a written affirmative action program. The written program must be developed within 120 days from the commencement of the contract and must be updated annually. Many states also have affirmative action program requirements for state government contractors. “Dealerships that have fleet management or service contracts with the government may be required to have a written affirmative action program including a documented plan,” explained Kathryn Carlson, Director of HR Products for KPA. “KPA’s new Affirmative Action Planning service allows dealerships to choose between using the automated reports in the HR management program to assist with monitoring and reporting or to completely outsource the development, monitoring, and reporting function to KPA.” KPA’s Affirmative Action Planning service includes: Narrative template for Affirmation Action Plan All OFCCP required AAP reports Comprehensive support documents Applicant Tracking Adverse Impact Analysis Annual Monitoring Optional Attorney Review Vane Clayton, CEO of KPA, comments “As dealerships and service companies face new regulatory challenges, KPA is committed to delivering both software and consulting services to assist our clients in remaining in compliance with state and federal regulations.” About KPA KPA is a dealer services and Internet marketing provider for over 4,000 automotive, truck, and equipment dealerships and service companies.
