EEOC releases updates to proposed EEO-1 reporting revisions

July 27, 2016 By Andrew Smith

EEOCAs anticipated, the EEOC has released updates to its proposed rule obligating certain employers and federal contractors who file annual EEO-1 reports to include employee pay data information in addition to already-required employee demographic data.

While the updated proposed rule would require the collection and reporting of the same general pay data information as initially proposed, the updated rule:

  • extends the due date for the first EEO-1 report to require this additional data from September 30, 2017 to March 31, 2018;
  • aims to simplify data collection by establishing a calendar year wage calculation period and moving the “workforce snapshot” period for purposes of counting employees to a pay period of the employer’s choice between October 1 and December 31 of the reporting year; and
  • provides guidance on reporting hours worked for exempt employees.

The updated proposed rule is subject to a 30-day comment period ending on August 15, 2016.

DOL proposes rule to collect compensation data from federal contractors

August 28, 2014 By ei2admin

On August 6, 2014, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) announced a proposed rule that would require most federal contractors and subcontractors annually to submit Equal Pay Reports on employee compensation to the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP). The aim of the proposed rule is to collect summary data on how federal contractors and subcontractors pay their employees, with an eye toward identifying potential gender-based and race-based pay disparities. This marks a significant change in compliance requirements for the federal contractor community because until now, federal contractors were required to disclose compensation data only in OFCCP compliance reviews.

The Equal Pay Report rule comes after President Obama issued a presidential memorandum on April 8, 2014, instructing the Secretary of Labor to propose a rule to collect summary compensation data from federal contractors and subcontractors. The proposed rule would require contractors to provide compensation information for their workforce broken down by sex, race, ethnicity and specified job categories. The rule was published in the Federal Register on August 8, 2014, and all comments must be received by November 6, 2014. After consideration of public comments, the DOL is anticipated to issue a final rule in the first half of 2015.

Don’t get burned by this summer’s OFCCP enforcement

August 27, 2014 By ei2admin

While federal contractors may have been looking forward to having a summer break from new affirmative action regulations and related enforcement activities, President Obama and the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contractor Compliance Programs (OFCCP) have had other ideas.

Indeed, President Obama and the OFCCP have turned up the heat on federal contractors this summer by: (1) issuing a slew of new executive orders and other regulations that exponentially increase their compliance obligations, and (2) sending out a second wave of corporate scheduling announcement letters advising of future compliance audits.
