On September 29, 2016, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced that it will start collecting the summary employee pay data from federal contractors and subcontractors. The new data will be added to the annual Employer Information Report or EEO-1 report, coordinated jointly by the EEOC and the Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP). Please note that only contractors with 100 or more employees will report the summary pay data (i.e., contractors with 50-99 employees will continue to report employees by job category, sex, and ethnicity/race, without having to report the new data). In lieu of the September 30, 2017 filing deadline, the 2017 New EEO-1 report will have to be submitted on March 31, 2018, giving employers 18 months to prepare.
EEOC staff is offering FREE webinars on October 20 and October 26, in which they will provide information on the data collection, as well as answer any questions that you may have. If interested, please sign up now for one of the following schedules (since both webinars will cover the same topics). After registration, an email confirmation will be sent with a personalized access link and instructions to connect the webinar.

Note: Both sessions are full at this time. For those who weren’t able to register, BCG will monitor the EEOC’s website and redistribute the recorded webinar as it is posted. In addition, BCGi will attempt to record the EEOC’s webinar on October 20th, and, where legally able to do so, make that available to all BCGi members.
