The annual EEO-1 Survey filing deadline is now one week away. While the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) extended last year’s filing deadline multiple times due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has not announced any similar extension for this year’s reporting requirement. As a result, the current deadline for covered employers to file their EEO-1 Survey reports is next Tuesday, May 17, 2022.

contentpilot/introduction

The EEO-1 Survey is an annual reporting requirement that applies to all private employers with at least 100 employees, as well as any prime government contractors or first-tier government subcontractors with at least 50 employees and a contract, subcontract or purchase order of at least $50,000. If covered, employers must file annual EEO-1 Survey reports that provide summary workforce gender and race/ethnicity information for each of their U.S. locations. Using a single payroll period between October 1st and December 31st of the prior calendar year, employers must capture and report this demographic information for all their U.S. employees (including remote workers) who were employed at any point during that payroll period. Once completed, the EEO-1 Survey reports must be electronically filed and certified through the EEOC’s Online Filing System.

core/paragraph

Given the upcoming deadline, covered employers should take immediate steps to compile and prepare the data necessary for completing their EEO-1 Survey reports. Employers should also create and/or re-activate their accounts with the EEOC’s Online Filing System, as well as report any corporate changes (i.e., mergers, spin-offs, acquisitions) or changes in certifying officials since last year’s reporting cycle. Once filed, employers should download and retain copies of their certified EEO-1 Survey reports in the event of an EEOC investigation or government audit.
