2019 EEO-1 Data Collection Suspended Until 2021

On May 8, 2020, the EEOC announced that, because of the coronavirus pandemic, the EEOC is delaying collection of 2019 EEO-1 Component 1 data to March 2021.

Employers must prepare to report both the 2019 and 2020 data at that time. The EEOC expects to begin collecting the 2020 EEO-3 (local unions) and 2020 EEO-5 (public elementary and secondary school districts) in January 2021. Keep in mind that the EEOC announced in September 2019 that it would not collect EEO-1 Component 2 data going forward; only Component 1 data is currently required to be tracked for employers with 100 or more employees, or federal contractors with 50 or more employees.
