Abstract: EEOC regulations require private employers with 100 or more employees to collect and retain in their records demographic information about their employees, and report this information to EEOC annually. EEOC uses this information to enforce civil rights laws and shares it with the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP), U.S. Department of Labor, and several other Federal agencies. Data are also shared with State and local Fair Employment Practices Agencies (FEPAs).

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The total burden hour estimate represents an update from the pre-2007 estimates when total burden hours were estimated at 599,000. This increase in burden hours is due to a significant increase in the number of firms reporting that began in 2007. In that year we nearly doubled the number of firms contacted, notified of their obligation to file a report and provided detailed information to do so. That effort was successful in that the number of firms filing increased from 49,610 to 68,999.
