Employers nationwide should be aware that the long-delayed 2022 EEO-1 reporting period opened October 31, 2023. The deadline for filing 2022 EEO-1 Component 1 data is December 5, 2023, though employers are encouraged to file sooner if possible.
All private-sector employers with 100 or more employees in the U.S., and federal contractors with at least 50 employees, are required to submit an EEO-1 report with workforce demographic data to the EEOC annually. The EEO-1 report discloses data about full-time and part-time employees' demographic information, such as sex, race, and ethnicity. The 2022 report is based on a workforce payroll snapshot taken in the fourth quarter of the reporting year (i.e., between October 1 and December 31, 2022).
The EEOC has provided resources to assist with the EEO-1 submission process, including:

The EEO-4 is a mandatory data collection for all state and local governments with 100 or more employees to submit demographic workforce data, including data by race/ethnicity, sex, job category, and salary band every two years.
