EEO-1 Form Revisions

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) still hopes to revise the EEO-1 reporting form by the end of 2003.
The proposed changes include possibly increasing the number of both racial and ethnic categories and re-defining the EEO categories.
There are many questions and issues that remain to be addressed before any revisions could be implemented. Officials from both

the EEOC and the Office of Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) have assured contractors the agencies are working together and that a reasonable transition period would be given for contractors to comply before any changes would become effective.
The proposed changes would increase the racial/ethnic categories from five to seven. The proposed new format would also split

the Official & Managers EEO category into three levels.
It is likely these changes will not be completed by the end of 2003. The EEOC must post a final draft of their changes in the Federal Register for 30 days before issuing the final regulation. Sources close to the agency admit it is unlikely the new EEO-1 form could be implemented before 2005.

The EO Pay Survey will continue to be sent to 10,000 randomly selected contractors for at least two more years.
