An EEO-1 Report is a survey form that requires employers to designate employees into five major race/ethnic designations used by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
Mandated under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and amended by the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972, it is a requirement of employers with 100 or more employees and employers that are government contractors with more than 50 employees. The EEOC designations in the form, which is due before September 30 each year, are white (not of Hispanic origin), black (not of Hispanic origin), Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander, and American Indian or Alaskan Native.
