When is the EEO-1 report due?

The EEOC sets the EEO-1 Component 1 deadline each year when it opens the data collection, and it typically falls in spring or early summer. Because the exact date moves annually, confirm the current-year deadline on the EEOC's filing site before you plan around it.

Who it applies to

Private employers with 100 or more employees, and federal contractors with 50 or more employees that meet the contract threshold. The report breaks the workforce down by job category, sex, and race/ethnicity.

If you miss it

EEO-1 filing is mandatory. Failure to file can lead to a court order compelling the report, and for federal contractors it can jeopardize eligibility for government contracts.
