AGC Joins EEOC EEO-1 Litigation

Opposes Component 2 Pay Data Requirement

On Monday August 19, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a brief in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit seeking to overturn the district court’s decision from March that reinstated the EEOC’s revised EEO-1 Component 2 form.  On Monday, August 26, AGC —with the help of its â€”joined 13 other associations on an amici brief that explains to the court the problems employers have with the new EEO-1 form; a narrative that was not included in the parties’ briefs. Currently, the court has yet to schedule a date to hear the appeal and is doubtful to do so before the end of the month since the DOJ never filed a request for expedition. Eligible contractors should continue to plan to submit EEO-1 Component 2 pay data by the September 30th deadline if they have not done so already.  More info and resources can be found here.
