A federal court announced today that employers have until
September 30, 2019 to turn over pay data as part of your revised
EEO-1 reporting obligations. After several weeks of uncertainty,
you now have a definitive due date to mark on your calendars for
this unprecedented new obligation. While there is still a chance
that an appeals court could put the pay data reporting requirement
on hold once again, you need to start taking action immediately

actual due date for the delivery of your 2018 compensation
information. This ruling is very significant because it impacts all
employers with 100 or more workers.
