Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're building up your team, there's a legal way to go
EEO data collection, track the numbers that you know
Race and gender, age and status, document them as they come
Federal reporting keeps you safe when audits want their sum

[Chorus]
Four-fifths rule will guide your way
Statistical tests show what the data say
Document decisions, keep it clean and clear
OFCCP compliance when federal contracts appear
Ban the box, give chances fair
Salary history stays out of there
Uniform Guidelines light the path ahead
Hiring compliance keeps you out of red

[Verse 2]
Adverse impact lurking when your numbers don't align
Eighty percent's the magic line, four-fifths rule by design
If one group's selection rate falls below this threshold mark
Statistical significance testing lights up what's in the dark

[Chorus]
Four-fifths rule will guide your way
Statistical tests show what the data say
Document decisions, keep it clean and clear
OFCCP compliance when federal contracts appear
Ban the box, give chances fair
Salary history stays out of there
Uniform Guidelines light the path ahead
Hiring compliance keeps you out of red

[Bridge]
Federal contractors must comply
OFCCP watching with a careful eye
Affirmative action plans in place
Equal opportunity for every race
Criminal history comes later on
Give fair chances, past mistakes move on

[Verse 3]
Consistency's the golden rule in every choice you make
Selection procedures documented for compliance sake
Salary questions off the table in so many states today
Fair chance hiring opens doors in a better way

[Chorus]
Four-fifths rule will guide your way
Statistical tests show what the data say
Document decisions, keep it clean and clear
OFCCP compliance when federal contracts appear
Ban the box, give chances fair
Salary history stays out of there
Uniform Guidelines light the path ahead
Hiring compliance keeps you out of red

[Outro]
From application to the final call
Equal treatment standing tall
Compliance is the HR way
Building better teams today
