EEO-1 Reporting

GLC

We must complete the EEO-1 report this year. How does your company go about collecting EEO-1 data from your current employees? Does your company have a form that you send out to employees or do you do visual observation? We have a demographic form that we have employees complete each year. Can we legally put the EEO-1 categories on it for employees to complete. Does it have to be on a volunteer basis? If you have an employee and you are not sure of their race, how do you handle it?

GLC,
If you will send me your e-mail address, I will email your our EEO01 survey form. I had my ee's update this year to the new categories. Identification information was voluntary. Name, address was not. All ee's turned in form. For those that did not self-identify, I coded them as a visual identification.

We've had several discussions recently regarding this topic. Search for EEO-1 and you will find some helpful information.

If I recall correctly the discussion centered on their not being a need to survey your existing workforce. We have an AAP and we did not do it.

The reporting on the AAP is different than the reporting on the EEO-1. The OFCCP has not changed their categories to coincide with the EEO's. The EEOC is using 2 or more races and the OFCCP is not so you will need to classify your employees twice. Also the OFCCP is not using 1.1 and 1.2 in their Officials and Managers category; they are only using 1.

I re-surveyed my employees and did find some differences between my AAP reporting and my EEO reporting.

Sounds good to me. I don't deal with this directly, thank god, so my details are a bit muddy. Thanks for the clarification.
