The AA-201 form is the official Initial Project Workforce Report issued by the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development. It supports the Construction EEO Compliance Monitoring Program, which tracks equal employment opportunity compliance on publicly funded construction projects across New Jersey. The form was last revised in November 2011 and remains the standard filing for project workforce data.
General contractors and subcontractors on New Jersey public agency construction projects must file the AA-201 at the start of each project. You will need your contractor identification number, the project assignment code, and the name and address of the public agency awarding the contract. The form also requires you to state whether your company is minority-owned or woman-owned, which affects your EEO reporting obligations under state law.
The AA-201 collects projected employment data organized by trade or craft: carpenters, electricians, glaziers, ironworkers, operating engineers, painters, plumbers, roofers, sheet metal workers, sprinkler fitters, steamfitters, surveyors, tilers, truck drivers, laborers, and others. For each trade, you report projected headcount broken down by gender and minority status. This gives the state an early picture of workforce diversity before construction begins. For ongoing payroll reporting requirements, see the certified payroll form and the NJEDA certified payroll form.
After completing the form, submit it to the public agency that awarded your construction contract. Retain a signed copy for your records, as the state may audit compliance at any time during the project. Contractors who do not file this form risk project suspension and enforcement action under New Jersey labor law. Our subcontractor agreement template and employment forms library can help you organize the full set of required construction documents.
