Have you met the EEO-1 reporting requirements?

This year, the instructions provide that employers should allow their employees to self-identity using the new EEO-1 categories, and then if necessary employers can determine the category from visual observations or existing business records. Last year, the EEOC issued implementation Questions and Answers that expressly advised that employers were not required to resurvey their workforces for the 2007 reports. That EEOC implementation guidance has been removed for 2008.

The completed reports are due September 30. Will you be ready?

Learn how to accurately complete and submit your reports by the September 30 deadline by participating in the popular HR Hero audio conference, 2008 EEO-1 Deadline Looms: How to Re-Survey Your Workforce.

Who has to submit EEO-1 reports?
Two kinds of employers are required to submit EEO-1 reports: (1) those with federal government contracts of $50,000 or more and 50 or more employees and (2) employers without government contracts that have 100 or more employees. (Certain employers are excluded from filing EEO-1 reports, including state and local governments, primary and secondary school systems, higher education institutions, and local unions although they are required to file similar reports.)

If your organization meets one of the above requirements, you must act quickly to gather accurate, detailed information about your workforce. When you participate in this back-by-popular-demand audio conference, experienced employment law attorneys will show you how to properly classify job positions and survey your employees to determine race and ethnic categories.

In just 90 minutes, we'll cover:

* Frequent questions, misunderstandings, and mistakes associated with filing EEO-1 reports

* How to meet the job category requirements. Before 2007, the form included the "Officials and Managers" category, but it now has been divided into the following two levels:

• Executive/Senior Level Officials and Managers," defined as those who plan, direct, and formulate policy, as well as those who set strategy and provide overall direction. In larger organizations, this category represents employees who are within two reporting levels of the CEO.
• "First/Mid-Level Officials and Managers," defined as those who direct implementation or operations within specific parameters set by Executive/Senior Level Officials and Managers, as well as those employees who oversee day-to-day operations.
• Business and financial occupations have been moved from the old "Officials and Managers" category to the "Professionals" category.

*A clear explanation of the changes in the ethnic and racial categories:

• A new category was added last year called "Two or more races."
• The old "Asian or Pacific Islander" category was divided into two categories in the form first required last year: "Asian" and "Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander."
• The "Black" category was renamed "Black or African American."
• The "Hispanic" category was renamed "Hispanic or Latino."
