As ordered by Judge Tanya S. Chutkan, EEOC has posted the following notice on its website alerting employers to the new EEO-1 pay data requirement.  The Notice indicates EEOC has not yet decided whether it will collect 2017 or 2019 data in addition to the current year of pay data.  EEOC has until May 3 to report its decision on this point to the Court and employers.

Notice of Immediate Reinstatement of Revised EEO-1: Pay Data Collection

EEO-1 filers should begin preparing to submit Component 2 data for calendar year 2018 by September 30, 2019, in light of the court’s recent decision in National Women’s Law Center, et al., v. Office of Management and Budget, et al., Civil Action No. 17-cv-2458 (D.D.C.).  The EEOC expects to begin collecting EEO-1 Component 2 data for calendar year 2018 in mid-July, 2019, and will notify filers of the precise date the survey will open as soon as it is available.  Filers should continue to use the currently open EEO-1 portal to submit Component 1 data from 2018 by May 31, 2019. 

As a result of the court vacating the Office of Management and Budget’s stay of Component 2, the EEOC will also collect Component 2 data for either calendar year 2017 or calendar year 2019, and will post an additional notice by May 3, 2019, announcing its decision.

We will provide an update as soon as additional information is available.
