As an update to our October 12, 2022 post regarding the deadline for federal contractors and first-tier subcontractors to object to disclosure of their Type 2 Consolidated EEO-1 reports from 2016 to 2020, the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) has provided federal contractors with more information regarding the release of such information.
Specifically, non-objecting contractors began receiving e-mails from the OFCCP as early as November 22, 2022, notifying them of the agency’s intent to release the EEO-1 data beginning on January 2, 2023.
