Please be aware of a current job offer scam perpetrated through the use of the internet. The scammers frequently misappropriate and use a company’s log and photos to give the appearance of legitimacy. The scam preys upon those seeking employment and uses false and fraudulent offers of employment with employers, such as Balt Inc to steal from the victims. Balt believes that one of the best ways to put a stop to this scam is to make sure you are aware of it. Balt’s job recruitment process involves live communication: in person, telephone, and/or video interviews in most cases.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
