As anticipated EEOC has announced the opening of the 2019 and 2020 EEO-1 data collection portal today.  The deadline for submission will be Monday, July 19, 2021.  As a reminder, employers are to submit only Component 1 (race and gender) data for these two years.  There is currently no obligation for pay data (Component 2) submissions.

EEOC mailed out notification letters to contact persons and addresses on file.  EEOC states eligible employers that have not received a 2019 and 2020 EEO-1 Component 1 notification letter via U.S. mail should contact the EEOC’s Filer Support Team at FilerSupport@eeocdata.org for assistance.  Employers that have received the notification letter, may now create user accounts using the “Company ID” and “Passcode” provided in the notification letter.

EEOC has also announced that while the on-line portal is available starting today, the large file batch upload will not be available until May 26, 2021.  Until that time filers can use to online form to file.  However, the majority of filers will need to wait until the end of may when filers may upload data files through the EEO-1 Component 1 Online Filing System. The format of the uploaded data file(s) must follow the file layout(s) set forth in the EEOC-approved specifications available beginning Wednesday, May 26, 2021 at EEOCdata.org/eeo1.

EEOC  has also launched a revised website and encourages employers to visit EEOCdata.org/eeo1 for the latest filing updates and additional information.  Additionally,  employers can request assistance as well as find helpful resources, including fact sheets and FAQs through the Filer Support Center located at EEOCdata.org/eeo1/support.

As co-leader of the firm’s ESG group, Laura Mitchell partners with her clients to evaluate, set, achieve and monitor their organizational culture and human capital goals. She focuses her practice on data analytics, including pay equity and other employee analytics, working side-by-side with employers to build programs that benefit employees and create a stable, high-functioning workplace. Understanding that an inclusive, values-based culture provides a crucial competitive advantage in the modern workplace, Laura enjoys counseling companies on the development of proactive and equitable pay and diversity practices.

In Laura’s version of the reimagined workplace, attention to human capital issues, especially DEI and pay equity, would be the rule rather than the exception nationwide and she works with companies across all industries—both new and well-established multi-national organizations of all sizes—to realize this vision for her clients’ ongoing success. She helps clients understand all issues across the spectrum of their journey, helping to establish regular analyses as well as counseling organizations on implementation and compliance obligations, where applicable. Committed to putting her clients’ organizational goals first and foremost, Laura views herself as an extension of her clients’ team, responsible for providing proactive guidance and engaging in transparent, ongoing communication.

Laura also represents companies in OFCCP matters, preparing for and defending OFCCP audits, and counseling employers on issues stemming from OFCCP regulations. She personally oversees the development of hundreds of Affirmative Action Plans for clients each year and is intimately involved in the defense of OFCCP audits. Her approach to compliance is one of facilitation and conciliation while simultaneously advocating in the best interests of her clients.
