SBA Ombuds Service

If your company is a small business as defined by the SBA, you can file a comment with the Ombudsman using the contact information below.

Small businesses should not fear retaliation for comments regarding enforcement actions by OFCCP. However, the filing of a comment by a small business does not affect OFCCP’s authority to enforce or otherwise seek contractor compliance with the laws and regulations it enforces, and filing a complaint is not a substitute for such compliance.
