Each year, federal contractors and subcontractors whose contracts are of a specified value must file a Federal Contractor Veterans Employment Report. Effective August 1, 2015, the Veterans Employee and Training Service (VETS) administration mandates that federal contractors file their VETS reports using the VETS-4212 form, which replaces the VETS-100 and VETS-100A reports. The VETS-4212 form requires federal contractors to report aggregate data on the number of protected veterans that were newly hired and the number they employed.
To accommodate the VETS-4212 reporting requirements, Oracle US HR provides the following concurrent programs to generate the VETS-4212 reports:
Electronic VETS-4212 Report: Use the Electronic VETS-4212 Report program to produce a magnetic file that contains all of the individual VETS-4212 reports that you can submit electronically.
VETS-4212 Suite Of Reports: Use this program to generate a VETS-4212 PDF-based report. This program launches the following programs:
VETS-4212 Consolidated Veterans Employment Report
VETS-4212 Veterans Employment Report
VETS-4212 Employment Listing
See:
You can generate all of the VETS-4212A reports for your enterprise by running a single program or by running each program individually according to your business requirements. The application automatically creates single-establishment or multiple-establishment reports based on the hierarchy structure selected.
Note: The Oracle US HR VETS-4212 reports are designed to comply with current formatting standards. However, Oracle recommends that you refer to the VETS-4212 website at https://www.dol.gov/vets/vets4212.htm for the latest reporting requirements.
See Setting Up Data to Generate VETS-4212 Reports for information about setting up data to run the VETS-4212 reports.
The employee counts reported in the VETS-4212 reports are derived based on the VETS-100A value in an employee's person record. An HR professional selects the VETS-100A value for an employee in the Employment tab of the People window in the professional UI. If an employee uses the Disclose Veteran Status Employee Self-Service function to record their VETS-100A information, then the application captures the VETS-100A value and this value is visible in the Employment tab of the People window in the professional UI.
The following table maps each VETS-100A value to the Protected Veteran column in each VETS-4212 report:
| VETS-100A Value | Protected Veteran? |
