It’s a good thing NFL teams are beholden to OFCCP Compliance

It’s a good thing NFL teams are beholden to OFCCP compliance. ESPN Radio’s Colin Cowherd suggested that when GMs for NFL teams are interviewing potential players, they should be able to ask any question they feel will help them determine the success potential of that player for their team. Jeff Baker, Vice President and Partner at Pinnacle HR Consulting Services, a Newton partner, agreed but warned how it could be different if interviewing with a federal contractor rather than an NFL team. He also worked in a quick plug for Pinnacle HR Consulting Services.

If you are not already familiar with Pinnacle HR Consulting, the firm is the industry leader of affirmative action planning and recruitment compliance consulting. In short, Jeff and his team create affirmative action plans for employers to ensure OFCCP and EEOC compliance.  Earlier this year Newton and Pinnacle announced a strategic partnership. Read the press release here.

Through our partnership, the experts at Pinnacle will be available to provide strategic recruitment compliance and affirmative action consulting with a keen understanding of the Newton Applicant Tracking System.
