DirectEmployers Named #1 Author in Government Contracting in JD Supra 2022 Readers Choice Awards for the Second Year Running

JD Supra, the recognized source for legal intelligence, recently revealed its winners for the 2022 Readers Choice Awards. For the second year running, DirectEmployers and its OFCCP Week In Review team placed number one in the Government Contracting Category amongst the more than 65,000 authors who published their insights and commentary on the platform. This year’s program recognized 267 thought leaders for achieving the highest visibility and engagement among readers for their particular expertise and chose ten authors from 28 popular categories.

“We are honored to be recognized for our knowledge and as the clear leader of the high caliber of education offered to the government contracting community,” commented DirectEmployers Executive Director Candee Chambers. “Thanks to the support of our 950+ Members, DirectEmployers has the unique opportunity to form memorandums of understanding with agencies like the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) and the National Association of State Workforce Agencies (NASWA), and also be recognized as a source of truth and unbiased guidance for both federal contractors, federal government agency representatives, and political appointees.”

As the name suggests, the JD Supra Readers Choice Awards reflect a deep dive into its 2021 reader data to study total visibility and engagement among readers across many industries interested in specific defining topics of the day. In 2021, DirectEmployers published 85 posts to its firm profile. DirectEmployers weekly publication, the OFCCP Week In Review, authored by John C. Fox, Candee Chambers, and Jennifer Polcer, took the top placement as most-viewed content, alongside the myriad of additional content relevant to the government contracting community. For his 63 publications, author John C. Fox garnered 136,298 total reads and 4,714 profile views for his thought-provoking articles. Popular posts from the year include coverage of the weekly OFCCP Week In Review, federal gender reporting surrounding today’s non-binary dilemma with the assistance of Jay Wang, and insight into Executive Order 13950, which prohibited “divisive” workplace diversity training for federal contractors.

“The intricacies of the federal government regulatory landscape requires committed focus and the ability to look forward and predict what is coming down the road and how these changes will affect employers long-term,” commented John C. Fox, President and Partner of the Silicon Valley-based law firm of Fox, Wang, & Morgan. “With my articles, it’s always my goal to be the conduit of information, shedding much-needed clarity to every regulatory change, Executive order, and agency priority so employers can make informed decisions.”
