The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced that, until further notice, filers subject to the EEO-1 reporting requirement should not submit aggregate data about W-2 (Box 1) income and hours worked, which is the information required by “Component 2” of the EEO-1 report (which was approved on September 29, 2016). However, filers should continue to submit data on the ethnicity, race, and sex of workers by job category (“Component 1” of the EEO-1 report). This is the same type of EEO-1 data that filers have submitted in the past.
All EEO-1 filers should submit and certify their 2017 EEO-1 reports (Component 1 data only) by March 31, 2018. They should count employees for purposes of this EEO-1 report during a “workforce snapshot period” between October 1 and December 31, 2017.
