The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) extended the deadline for covered contractors to object to the release of their EEO-1 reports from Sept. 19 to Oct. 19. We've gathered articles on the news from SHRM Online and other outlets.
Planned Disclosure
The planned disclosure is in response to a 2019 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for Type 2 Consolidated EEO-1 report data submitted by federal contractors and first-tier subcontractors. In June 2022, the request was amended to include all data submitted by contractors and first-tier subcontractors from 2016 until 2020.
All employers with 100 or more employees—and federal contractors with 50 or more employees—are legally required to annually file EEO-1 reports that summarize employee headcount as of a moment in time by worksite, job categories, sex, and race or ethnicity, said David Goldstein, an attorney with Littler in Minneapolis.
"Different types of reports are filed for the headquarters location of the employer or its ultimate parent if there are multiple related employing entities—and for every other location," he said. "The Type 2 Consolidated Report is generated by the EEO-1 reporting system and covers the entire corporate enterprise, aggregating all subsidiaries and locations in a single report." The Type 2 Consolidated Report is not pay data.
