EEOC Pay Reporting Obligations Suspended

In a much-anticipated move, the Office of Management and Budget's Office of Information Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has directed the Acting Chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to suspend implementation of the EEOC's revised EEO-1 report, which included detailed pay reporting obligations.

Prior to this directive issued on August 29, 2017, employers were scheduled to make their first pay disclosures under the revised EEO-1 report by March 31, 2018. Now, no pay disclosures will be required. Employers will use the previous version of the EEO-1 form for Fiscal Year 2017 reporting. OIRA did not change the date of this filing. The report will be due by March 31, 2018. Details about the EEO-1 form can be found at https://www.eeoc.gov/employers/eeo1survey/about.cfm.
