FILING INSTRUCTIONS
Broadcast station licensees are required to afford equal employment opportunity to all qualified persons and to refrain from
discriminating in employment and related benefits on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, and sex. See 47 C.F.R.
Section 73.2080. Pursuant to these requirements, a television station employment unit that employs five or more full-time station
employees must file a full and complete Broadcast Mid-Term Report. If a television station employment unit employs fewer than
five full-time employees, only the first two pages of this report need be filed.
A copy of this Mid-Term Report must be kept in the station's public file. Failure to meet these requirements may result in
sanctions or remedies. These requirements are contained in 47 C.F.R. Section 73.2080 and are authorized by the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended.
Consider as "full-time" employees all those permanently working 30 or more hours a week.
Does your station employment unit employ fewer than five full-time employees, if
television, or fewer than eleven full-time employees, if radio?

It is also the responsibility of all persons at a broadcast station making employment decisions with respect to recruitment,
