Oak Essentials was founded by a group of like-minded women united by a key feeling that there was something lacking in the world of luxury beauty. With years of collective experience in the lifestyle space, we were eager to cut through the noise by creating a destination dedicated to everyday well-being. We believe that care—of your body, skin, home, and self—comes down to a set of essentials defined by you: from the beautiful details that make your home feel special to the vulnerable conversations that leave you feeling whole.

As we continue to grow our team, our aim is to create a workplace that’s built on diversity and inclusion, and where the varied voices and viewpoints of our community pave the way.

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. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

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.
