THE EEOC REPORTING PORTAL IS OPEN FOR FILING EEO-1 PAY DATA

The EEOC portal opened July 15th for uploading data for EEO-1 Pay Data.  The deadline to produce the data is September 30, 2019 for employers, including federal contractors, with more than 100 employees.  Covered employers are required to submit Component 2 data regarding hours worked and W‑2 Box 1 income across 12 pay bands for each job categorized by sex, ethnicity and race.  To assist employers, the EEOC issued FAQs answering questions including: how to select a date for counting; what employees to count; what hours to count for exempt and nonexempt employees; what establishments must be included; and how to file.  The FAQs are available at https://eeoccomp2.norc.org/faq.html.   The EEOC has also provided a sample form, instruction booklet, user’s guide, file specifications and reference documents at https://eeoccomp2.norc.org/info.html.  If you have any difficulty uploading data or have any questions, the EEOC has contracted with a third party provider at the University of Chicago, which offers help lines via toll-free telephone or email at (877) 324‑6214 or EEOCcompdata@norc.org.
