Annual Report From Federal Contractors
This proposed rule would create a new part, 41 CFR part 61- 300, to implement certain provisions of the Jobs for Veterans Act (``JVA'') (Pub. L. 107-288) which amended the Vietnam Era Veterans'' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended (``VEVRAA''). Prior to amendment by the JVA, VEVRAA and its implementing regulations required all contractors and subcontractors with Federal contracts in excess of $25,000 to use the Federal Contractor Veterans' Employment Report VETS- 100 form (``VETS-100 Report'') to report their efforts toward hiring veterans in four specified categories. The JVA raised the VETS-100 reporting threshold from $25,000 to $100,000, and modified the categories of veterans to be tracked in the reports, for contracts entered on or after December 1, 2003. Prior to amendment by the JVA, VEVRAA required all covered contractors to report on incumbents who fall within the following veteran status categories: Veterans of the Vietnam era; special disabled veterans; other protected veterans; and recently separated veterans. The Jobs for Veterans Act changed the reporting categories to: disabled veterans; other protected veterans; Armed Forces service medal veterans; and recently separated veterans. Additionally, the JVA requires Federal contractors and subcontractors to report the total number of all current employees in each job category and at each hiring location. The JVA made these changes for all contracts entered into on or after December 1, 2003. The Veterans' Employment and Training Service (``VETS'') proposes that the reporting requirements for this rule become effective for the calendar year 2007, which is reported on September 30, 2008. This rule would implement those changes, along with other changes to the VETS-100 Report that either are required by the JVA or will improve the administration of the related veterans' programs.

The committee is diverse and balanced, both in terms of segments of the maritime industry represented (e.g., shipyard and longshoring industries), and in the views or interests represented by the members. The Maritime Advisory Committee for Occupational Safety and Health has been reestablished and chartered for a two year term.
