Overview (Program Summary)
With the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Fraud Initiative now in effect, federal contractors and fund recipients face heightened scrutiny regarding compliance with civil rights laws. In fact, recent developments will require that such organizations certify they are in compliance with federal anti-discrimination laws as set forth in Executive Order 14173 entitled “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity.” Join Jackson Lewis P.C. attorneys Billy Jackson and Jeremy Schneider for a discussion on these certifications and the ensuing risk of False Claims Act litigation, which can be asserted by the federal government as well as employee-whistleblowers and third parties.
