2002 Secretary of Labor's Opportunity, EVE, and EPIC Awards

Three awards — the Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity Award, Exemplary Volunteer Efforts (EVE), and Exemplary Public Interest Contributions (EPIC) — were presented to recognize excellence and leadership in the implementation of effective equal employment opportunity standards.

“Each of these employers can take great pride in their efforts to provide women, people of color, veterans, and people with disabilities access to equal employment opportunities in our 21st Century workforce,” said U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao. “They create opportunity in America’s workforce and serve as role models for employers across the country.”

The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, part of the Labor Department’s Employment Standards Administration, administers laws and executive orders that ensure equal opportunity for workers employed by federal contractors.

Qualcomm Inc. received the Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity Award. This award, OFCCP’s top honor, is given to one federal contractor each year that has established and instituted comprehensive workforce strategies to ensure equal opportunity in the workforce.
