This is a reminder that all MVPDs must file their Equal Employment Opportunity (“EEO”) Program Annual Report by September 30^th.  In addition, specific MVPDs identified by the Commission must complete the Supplementary Investigation Sheet of the form.

At least once every five years, the Commission investigates specific systems utilizing a Supplementary Investigation Sheet filed with the EEO Program Annual Report.  Identified systems must submit additional information with their regular annual report, including a copy of the system’s EEO public file report for the preceding year.  General EEO requirements include: maintaining specific practices to ensure equal opportunity employment; disseminating EEO program to job applicants, employees and those with whom the system regularly does business; EEO outreach programs; specific EEO initiatives; record retention requirements; offering of promotions to minorities and women; and encouragement of minority and female entrepreneurship.
