The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has opened EEO-1 data collection for 2024 via its portal on May 20, 2025. The deadline to file is June 24, 2025.
The Details
The EEO-1 is an annual report through which covered employers must submit demographic workforce data, including data by race/ethnicity, sex, and job category, to the EEOC.
The EEOC has clarified that EEO-1 reporting for 2024 is still required for both the following types of employers:
- All private sector employers with 100 or more employees.
- Federal contractors with 50 or more employees and contracts of $50,000 or more.
For 2024 data collection, the EEOC instructs employers to report binary sex data (i.e. male or female).
Employers must submit the report via the EEOC’s online portal.
The 2024 EEO-1 Component 1 Instruction Booklet and 2024 EEO-1 Component 1 Data File Upload Specifications are also now available on the portal.
Next Steps
If you are covered by the EEO-1 requirement:
· Read the 2024 instruction booklet.
· Prepare to submit your EEO-1 by the June 24, 2025 deadline.
· ADP TotalSource helps you with your EEO-1 reporting requirement by providing a way to download a report with the appropriate information; however, ADP TotalSource is not permitted to submit the EEO-1 report on your behalf. If you are required to submit an EEO-1 report you must submit the report using the EEOC’s portal.
Instructions on preparing and filing your EEO-1 Report from ADP TotalSource®
1. Determine your establishments and record information about each establishment in the Validation Tables (Global Setup > EEO > Company Locations).
If you previously filed an EEO-1 report, in the top left-hand corner of your certified report represents your establishment number for each location, this is displayed as U=number.
Note: If you have multiple locations, review each page as each location has its own establishment number.
2. Login to My TotalSource® and access Reporting > HR Reports > Employee Pay Equity Details (previously EEO Employee Detail)
3. Determine your snapshot period which is a single pay period between Oct. 1 – Dec. 31 of the reporting year (in this case, 2024).
The Snapshot Period is used to identify employees who must be reported on in the EEO-1 report. For all employees in the Snapshot Period, the report should identify each employee’s Establishment Number (column G), EEO Class (column E), Ethnic Group (column D), and sex (column C).
4. If you identify missing data in columns G, F, E, or C, cure any employees identified as missing critical elements. To add missing field data, navigate to:
Race/Ethnicity/Gender Field: HR > Personal Profile
EEO Establishment Number: HR > Employment Profile.
Note: The EEO Establishment Number field must have an Establishment Number associated with the location for the report to generate data in column G– Establishment Number. To add an Establishment Number for each work site location, navigate to:
Global Setup > EEO > Company Locations
5. Run EEO-1 Component 1 Report by clicking Reporting > HR Reports > EEO-1 Component 1 and CA Pay Data Reports
6. You are now ready to file your EEO-1 report before the published deadline June 24, 2025.
