The season for filing EEO-1 and VETS-4212 reports is upon us. The filing year for EEO-1 reporting opened July 1, and the electronic filing system is expected to open this month. The filing year for VETS-4212 reporting begins August 1, and the electronic filing system is expected to open in early August.
In addition, it is important to remember that the Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS) recently announced that the threshold requiring federal contractors to file VETS-4212 reports has been increased from $100,000 to $150,000, and the change will be in effect for the 2016 filing year. As such, if your organization does not meet the contract threshold, then you are not required to file VETS-4212 reports.
Additional reminders:
- EEO-1: Employment data must be pulled from any pay period between July 1 to September 30, 2016.
- VETS-4212: Employment data must be pulled from any pay period between July 1 to August 31, 2016. New Hire data must be pulled for the 12-month period preceding the ending date of the selected payroll period.
