Short Answer: Currently, no. But first, some background.

Generally, employers with 100 or more employees, and certain federal contractors and subcontractors, are required to file an Employer Information Report EEO-1 each year. The EEO-1 is a report of the employer's work force by job category, sex, race, and ethnicity. In 2016, then-President Obama announced a plan to use the EEO-1 to assist in ending the gender wage gap.

To that end, on February 1, 2016, the EEOC published a notice announcing its intention to seek a three-year approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a "revised Employer Information Report (EEO-1) data collection." Under the proposal, the revised EEO-1 would now contain a "Component 2," which would include employees' W-2 earnings, as well as hours worked information for employees covered by the EEO-1. The data was to be reported in an aggregated fashion into 12 pay bands for the 10 EEO-1 job categories.
