As we recently
reported, federal Judge Tanya Chutkan of the U.S. District
Court for the District of Columbia recently ordered the EEOC to
move forward with stalled Obama-era requirements that employers who
are required to file annual EEO-1 reports provide certain pay data
with those reports.
At the time of our last article, it was unclear whether the EEOC
would have the tools in place to commence such collections by May
31, 2019, the date on which the agency's regular gender, race
and ethnicity data collection is due. Now, in a required April 3,
2019, filing with the court, the EEOC has stated that it will have
the portal for collecting this information from employers available
starting later in the summer, with a September 30, 2019, pay data
filing deadline.
