New EEO-1 Reporting Requirements

The EEO-1 is an annual survey mandated by federal law that requires all private employers with 100 or more employees and federal government contractors/subcontractors with 50 or more employees and a federal contract, sub­contract or purchase order of $50,000 or more to file the EEO-1 Component 1 employee demographic report in March of each year (although in 2019, the deadline was extended to May 31).

In addition, the EEOC is now requiring covered employers, including federal government contractors, with 100 or more employees, to submit EEO-1 Component 2 employee compensation and hours worked data, by job category, for 2017 and 2018 by September 30, 2019.

Filers should refer to the EEOC website at https://eeoccomp2.norc.org/info  and https://eeoccomp2.norc.org/Faq for guidance on filing requirements for Component 2 data. We can also be of assistance if needed.
