The NAM filed an amicus brief urging the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to delay the deadline for filing the Revised EEO-1 Report “Component 2” pay data. Because Component 2 significantly expands the data fields employers must submit, employers need sufficient time to revise their systems, implement new procedures and train employees in order to collect the data. Component 2 creates an administrative burden for employers who will now be forced to bear the costs of complying with the requirements. The NAM’s brief argued that the EEOC has previously recognized that changes to EEO-1 require implementation time; 2) employers reasonably relied on EEOC’s direction and did not take the steps need to comply with collection of the data; 3) consistent with these reasons employers should receive sufficient time to prepare for the revised EEO-1; and 4) the data should not be required until EEOC can preserve confidentiality. The court declined to delay the filing deadline.
