Getting a Handle on the Fundamentals of EEO-1 Reporting Requirements for 2021

Every year, employers with 100 or more employees (and federal contractors with 50 or more employees) must file EEO-1 Component 1 data, which consists of demographic information, such as race, gender, and ethnicity information, of the employer’s workforce by job category.

In recognition of the crisis precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the EEOC delayed the reporting requirements and deadlines for 2019 and 2020. The delay means that now, in 2021 you will need to make 2 submissions, instead of one: the first submission must contain 2019 EEO-1 data and the second one must contain 2020 EEO-1 data.

In recognition of the COVID-19 pandemic’s continuing global impact, and of the significant task of simultaneously submitting two years’ EEO-1 data, the EEOC has extended the data collection period this year from 10 weeks to 12 weeks.
