A functional establishment is composed of everyone in the contractor’s enterprise working in a functional area such as sales and marketing or administrative support.
Corporate Management Compliance Evaluation
Sometimes called a glass ceiling audit, this audit looks at the corporate headquarters organization and analyzes issues surrounding executive compensation, succession planning, mentoring programs, and developmental programs. This type of compliance evaluation was created by the OFCCP to identify illegal discrimination at senior corporate levels. Glass ceiling is the term that refers to an invisible barrier beyond which women may not progress in the organization. Since the term was first used, its meaning has expanded to encompass minorities as well as women.
