This is a friendly reminder that your VETS-4212 report is due no later than September 30.

What is the VETS-4212 report?

At least annually, and for each location, all VA FSS contractors are required to report:

  • The total number of employees in your company's workforce, by job category and hiring location, who are protected veterans.

  • The total number of new employees hired during the reporting period and, of that total, the number of protected veterans.

  • The maximum and minimum number of employees at each location during the reporting period.

The reporting period is based on the most recent 12-month period preceding the ending date selected for the report. Typically, this is the end of any pay period between July 1 and August 31.
