With the EEOC Poised to End EEO-1 Reporting, What’s Next for Employers?
Short summary
The EEOC is ending mandatory EEO-1 demographic reporting for large employers after regulatory review completes (potentially by August 2026). Employers should continue 2026 filings while consulting counsel on state/local requirements that remain independent. Organizations may still voluntarily collect demographic data for pay equity and discrimination prevention purposes.
- •EEOC proposed rule ends EEO-1 reporting; final rule timeline measured in months
- •State laws (CA, IL, MA) impose separate demographic disclosure requirements
- •Employers may continue collecting data voluntarily for internal equity analysis
