EEOC Sues 15 Employers Over Reporting Failures

Breaking News!
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has filed lawsuits against 15 employers across 10 states for not submitting mandatory workforce demographic reports. These EEO-1 Component 1 data reports, required by federal law for companies with 100 or more employees, include workforce information categorized by job type, sex, race, and ethnicity. This data is crucial for enforcing anti-discrimination laws, conducting research, and aiding employer self-assessment.

EEOC General Counsel Karla Gilbride emphasized the importance of compliance, stating, “This data collection is an important tool for ensuring compliance with Title VII’s prohibition on workplace discrimination.”
