EEO-1 Reporting Services

What is an EEO-1 Report

The Employer Information Report (EEO-1 Report) is a compliance survey mandated by federal statute and regulations. The EEO-1 Report requires covered employers to submit aggregated employee data to the federal government. This report is due every year by March 31st using data from the previous calendar year. Both the EEOC and OFCCP have used EEO-1 report data since 1966. The agencies use the EEO-1 Report data to support civil rights enforcement.

Who Has to File an EEO-1 Report?

• Private employers, including federal contractors and subcontractors, with 100 or more employees; or
• Employers with fewer than 100 employees if the company is owned by or corporately affiliated with another company and the entire enterprise employs a total of 100 or more employees; or
• Federal contractors or subcontractors with 50 or more employees and contracts amounting to $50,000 or more.

• Component-2/Compensation Report

  • The EEOC is currently evaluating whether to reinstitute an annual compensation report. This report may be like Component 2 which was officially discontinued in February 2020 by a federal court. Component 2 included elements from the Component 1 report such as race/ethnicity and gender by EEO-1 category, however, it also included a requirement to report aggregated compensation and hours-worked data.

  • Berkshire is following this development very closely and we plan to be positioned to help you meet the filing requirements should such a compensation report be required.
