The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has extended the deadline for filing the 2017 EEO-1 Survey from March 31 to June 1, 2018. According to the EEOC FAQs, for the 2017 EEO-1 reporting cycle, the EEO-1 will collect data on the race, ethnicity and sex of workers by job category from private employers with 100 or more employees and federal contractors with 50 or more employees and $50,000 in contract(s). According to the EEO-1 Survey web page, an email will be sent to the EEO-1 company contact introducing the new EEO-1 survey application. Any questions on the new survey should be directed to 1 (877) 392-4647. In August 2017, the Office of Management and Budget initiated a review and immediate stay of the EEOC’s collection of pay and hours worked on the revised EEO-1 report issued under the Obama administration. For more information, visit the EEO-1 Survey web page.
