We are a federal contractor or subcontractor.

The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualifiedpeople with disabilities.

We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities.

The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one.

People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.
