EEO-1 reports were due on June 4, 2024.  If you have not yet filed your report, you should do so as soon as possible.  The EEOC has provided a late filing deadline of July 9, 2024 to file your 2023 reports.  After that date, the opportunity to file will be lost.  Failure to file your EEO-1 report can result in litigation with the federal government, as some unlucky employers have recently learned.  The EEOC issued a statement on May 29, 2024 reminding employees of the important role EEO-1 reports play in enforcing Title VII.  The EEOC also announced that it is suing 15 employers across the country for failing to file their 2021 and 2022 EEO-1 reports.

As a reminder, all employers with 100 or more employees must file an annual EEO-1 report.  In addition, all federal contractors who have 50 or more employees and a prime contract or first-tier subcontract with a value of $50,000 or more are required to file an EEO-1 report.  Institutions that serve as a depository of government funds in any amount or institutions that are financial institutions which are issuing and paying agents for US savings bonds and notes must also file an EEO-1 report.

Don’t get caught up in federal litigation.  Again, the late filing deadline for the EEO-1 report is July 9. Don’t miss it!
