Gain a better understanding of the OFCCP internet applicant rule and how disposition codes are used in OFCCP audits.
Because of employee turnover, business demands, and the ever-increasing need for speed, corporate recruiters and other HR staff often don’t have time to think beyond hiring a qualified individual for an opening by a given deadline. Further, because of the advent of online applications, the volume of candidates that must be vetted for a given selection can be overwhelming.
Into this mix goes the need to specify why a given candidate was or was not selected, often accomplished by the use of disposition codes. However, without a base understanding of why disposition coding matters for OFCCP audit defense, the exercise can seem pointless. This presentation will provide an overview of the OFCCP internet applicant rule, differences between candidates and internet applicants from OFCCP’s perspective, how disposition coding impacts those definitions and related AAP statistical counts, and how such codes are used in OFCCP audits (for and against employers).
