At Constangy, Brooks & Smith, we have been the employers' law firm since 1946. This helps us give you a strategic advantage.
Constangy's AAP team has over 100 years combined experience in affirmative action and is unique in that it is made up of a complement of paralegals and Human Resources professionals, as well as attorneys.
Because we are attorneys, we can counsel you through every phase of the compliance process - from preparing Affirmative Action Plans to defending compliance reviews and training your employees.
Our team understands both the letter and spirit of Executive Order 11246 so we can help clients proactively approach potential issues concerning data control, retention, analyses and dissemination of AAP information to management and current and potential employees.
And because we are attorneys, we can provide attorney-client privilege and work product protections that cannot be offered by service providers who are not attorneys. This is essential because, not only is the OFCCP entitled to view "unprivileged" self evaluations, but adversaries in employment discrimination lawsuits might also be entitled to obtain the evaluations in discovery. Any unexplained and uncorrected areas of adverse impact and/or compensation disparities could support an award of compensatory and punitive damages.
Before and after strategic AAP development, our team continues to serve our clients as a partner and resource to assist you in building the ACTION into your Affirmative Action Plan.
To learn how we can help you to create a competitive compliance strategy for your company, please call us at 866-843-9555 or e-mail us at affirmativeaction@constangy.com. For additional information about the other labor and employment services we offer, visit www.constangy.com.
