“The National Industry Liaison Group (NILG) is a unique consortium of professionals consisting of federal contractors and subcontractors in partnership with regulatory agencies, working toward achieving equal employment opportunities for all.” – Anthony Kaylin, NILG Chair
Our Partnerships
Disability:IN is the leading nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion worldwide. Our network of over 185 corporations expands opportunities for people with disabilities across enterprises.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is responsible for enforcing federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee because of the person’s race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information.
The National Organization on Disability (NOD) is a private, nonprofit organization that promotes the full participation and contributions of America’s 56 million people with disabilities in all aspects of life. Today, the National Organization on Disability focuses on increasing employment opportunities for the 80-percent of working-age Americans with disabilities who are not employed.
The Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) is the only non-regulatory federal agency that promotes policies and coordinates with employers and all levels of government to increase workplace success for people with disabilities.
The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs is part of the U.S. Department of Labor. OFCCP is responsible for ensuring that employers doing business with the Federal government comply with the laws and regulations requiring nondiscrimination.
VETS is committed to helping America’s veterans, separating service members and military families by preparing them for meaningful careers, providing employment resources and expertise, and protecting their employment rights.
The NILG Team
The NILG Board supports 61 ILGs, which are comprised of small, mid-size and large federal contractors and employers across the country. No other employer association has a broader base of constituents focused on EO/AA matters.
