Why Are You Being Asked to Complete This Form? This Employer is a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended by the Jobs for Veterans Act of 2002, 28 U.S.C. 4212 (VEVRAA). VEVRAA requires Government contractors to take affirmative action to employ and advance in employment protected veterans. To help us measure the effectiveness of our outreach and recruitment efforts of veterans, we are asking you to tell us if you are a veteran covered by VEVRAA. Completing this form is completely voluntary, but we hope you fill it out. Any answer you give will be kept private and will not be used against you in any way. For more information about this form or the equal employment obligations of Federal contractors, visit the U.S. Department of Labors Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
How Do You Know if You Are a Veteran Protected by VEVRAA? Contrary to the name, VEVRAA does not just cover Vietnam Era veterans. It covers several categories of veterans from World War II, the Korean conflict, the Vietnam era, and the Persian Gulf War, which is defined as occurring from August 2, 1990, to the present. If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans, please indicate by checking the appropriate box below on the application. The categories are defined in the application and explained further in an "Am I a Protected Veteran?" infographic provided by OFCCP.
What Categories of Veterans Are "Protected" by VEVRAA? "Protected" veterans include the following categories: (1) disabled veterans; (2) recently separated veterans; (3) active-duty wartime or campaign badge veterans; and (4) Armed Forces service medal veterans. These categories are defined below.
A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under the laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability. A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veterans discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service. An "active-duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense. An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.
