A list of the 18 FCA Board policy statements is set forth below. FCA Board policy statements may be viewed online at www.fca.gov/handbook.nsf.

On August 13, 2013, the FCA Board reaffirmed, and made minor updates only, to FCA-PS-62 on, "Equal Employment Opportunity and Diversity." The policy was changed to explicitly state that FCA provides reasonable religious accommodations consistent with Title VII and to clarify that opposition to or participation in the equal employment opportunity process may be a basis for reprisal claims. The policy was published in the Federal Register on August 20, 2013 (78 FR 51187). The FCA will continue to publish new or revised policy statements in their full text.
