ODOT Announces New Mandatory OJT Program
ODOT’s Office of Opportunity, Diversity, and Inclusion (ODI) has announced a new mandatory OJT program. This replaces the voluntary program that has been in place for the last several years. While the ongoing requirements will not place any additional administrative burdens on prime contractors, there will be a need to submit Good Faith Efforts if the annual goal is not met. You may view the notice here. Please contact Chris Engle or ODI at (614) 466-3957 with any questions.
