Overview
The EEO-1 report collects employment data by race, ethnicity, gender and job category. Federal law requires it from private employers with 100 or more employees, federal contractors and first-tier subcontractors with 50 or more, and financial institutions and government depositories with 50 or more. This 75-minute EEO-1 report filing webinar explains how to comply.
You'll review the history of the EEOC and OFCCP and the laws each enforces, proposed changes to the report and pay disparities, and who must file, how and when.
The session gives step-by-step filing basics, how to classify managers and supervisors, affordable and legally compliant ways to survey employees, and how to protect the confidentiality of EEO-1 data.
Why attend: Employers who must file but don't can face a lawsuit compelling them to report, and false reporting can bring fines or imprisonment. Government contractors that don't file risk debarment, and if a discrimination charge is filed the EEOC may check whether you filed, which can count against you in court. The session suits HR professionals, financial officers, in-house counsel, affirmative action and EEO officers, and federal contractors.
