In July 2024, Massachusetts enacted An Act Relative to
Salary Range Transparency (the "Act"), introducing
new pay transparency and workforce reporting obligations for
employers operating in the Commonwealth. We previously wrote about
the Act here, here, and here.
EEO Reporting Requirements
Per the Act's reporting obligations, employers with at least
100 employees in Massachusetts at any time in the prior calendar
year who are already subject to federal EEO disclosures must submit
their federally compliant EEO reports to the Commonwealth on an
annual basis.
The EEO-1 report is due by February 2, 2026 (extended by
one day because February 1 falls on a Sunday). Employers
must make their submissions in PDF, JPEG, or PNG format through the
Secretary of State's online portal, linked here. The statute permits
submission of an employer's federally compliant EEO report,
meaning no revisions or Massachusetts‑specific versions are
required.
