 Compliance Action Item 2: EEO-1 Report Questionnaire

 

If on November 30, 2017, the ADP TotalSource EEO Snapshot date, you had at least 50 permanent employees (full-time and part-time), you may be required to file an EEO-1 Report.  Two short questions within the ADP TotalSource EEO Questionnaire will assist in assessing your company’s responsibility to file. If you meet the qualifying criteria, ADP TotalSource will include your company’s data in our filing. 

                                             

What is the EEO-1 Report?

 

The EEO-1 Report is a compliance survey mandated by federal statute and regulations. The survey requires company employment data to be categorized by race/ethnicity, gender, and job category. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) uses EEO-1 data to support civil rights enforcement and to analyze employment patterns within companies, industries, or regions. The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) system uses statistical assessment of EEO-1 data to select facilities where the likelihood of systematic discrimination is the greatest.

 

 Generally, an employer is required to file an EEO-1 Report if:

 

  1. It employs 100 or more employees (single location or as part of an affiliated/centrally owned enterprise); or
  2. It employs 50 or more employees and

a.     has a prime contractor first-tier subcontract of $50,000 or more with a federal agency

b.     is a depository of federal government funds

c.     is an issuing and paying agent for U.S. Savings Bonds and Notes

 

ACTION REQUIRED

 

Step 1: Log in to ADP TotalSource and go to Process > HR > TotalSource Compass. Select EEO.

Step 2: Answer the 2 prompts of the EEO-1 Questionnaire.  

Step 3: That’s it!  You can review your EEO-1 data from Reporting > Standard Reports > Statutory Compliance > EEO-1 Employee Detail.

 

Helpful resources are available directly within the EEO-1 Questionnaire by clicking on the hyperlinks in each step of the process.
