EEOC Announces Collection of 2017 and 2018 Pay Data

May 3, 2019 - The EEOC has announced that the collection of 2017 and 2018 Summary Pay Data and Hours Worked (EEO-1 Component 2) will be required from EEO-1 filers (meeting specific headcount requirements) by September 30, 2019. The EEOC expects to begin collecting EEO-1 Component 2 data for calendar years 2017 and 2018 in mid-July 2019.  Although there is a chance that an appeals court could place another stay on the summary pay data and hours worked reporting requirement, or the regulations could be modified, employers should start taking action immediately under the assumption that all of this information will need to be disclosed by the recently announced due date.
