Due to the recent partial
lapse in federal government appropriations, the deadline to submit EEO-1 data
will be extended until May 31, 2019.
The EEO-1 is an annual federal survey that requires all private employers with
100 or more employees and federal government contractors or first-tier
subcontractors with 50 or more employees and a federal
contract, subcontract or purchase order amounting to $50,000 or more to file
the EEO-1 report. The survey requires company employment data to be
categorized by race/ethnicity, gender and job category. The filing of the EEO-1 report, is required by federal law
per Section 709(c), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; and
§1602.7–§1602.14, Title 29, Chapter XIV of the Federal Code of Regulations. Details
and instructions for EEO-1 filers, including the exact date of the survey
opening, will be forthcoming. Filers should refer to the EEO-1 website in
the coming weeks for updates on the new schedule.
