The Department of Labors (DOL) Veterans' Employment & Training Service (VETS) announced that? it extended the 2011 deadline for federal contractors to submit their VETS-100/VETS-100A reporting forms.
The deadline is pushed back to November 30, 2011. The VETSs website states that the DOL planned to begin accepting electronic submissions of VETS-100/100A? forms on August 1, 2011. However, technical problems currently prevent such submissions. The DOL said it believes that it can resolve the problems and go online by October 1, 2011.
To address the delays caused by the technical problems, the DOL stated that it will not initiate enforcement actions against contractors who submit the VETS-100/VETS-100A from October 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011.
Federal contractors use the VETS-100/VETS-100A reporting forms to detail the number of protected veteran employees and new hires in their workforce. Regulations require contractors to submit this form by September 30 of each year.
The Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment and Assistance Act of 1974 (VEVRAA) requires eligible federal contractors to submit the VETS-100/VETS-100A annual reports to the Secretary of Labor. Please visit the VETS website for more information on VETS-100/VETS-100A? rules and regulations, including a federal contractor fact sheet.
