As the season approaches for filing the 2022 “Component 1” Employer Information (EEO-1) Reports with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), some questions about filing procedures remain unanswered, particularly for online filers. The EEOC has made several significant changes to the filing process, especially for filers using the popular “Data File Upload” option. Last week, representatives from EEOC’s Office of Enterprise Data and Analytics (OEDA) discussed these changes with the Center for Workplace Compliance (CWC), our affiliated nonprofit membership association, during a CWC Web Workshop. While they provided helpful information, they conceded that the full impact of the changes won’t be known until covered entities begin attempting to upload their files. The online portal opens October 31, 2023, with a submission deadline of December 5, 2023.
