This collection is part of a Federal Government-wide effort to streamline the process to seek feedback from the public on service delivery.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) is amending its procedural regulations to explicitly provide for digital transmissions of documents, to clarify the process for deferral to state and local agencies, to update no cause determination procedures, and to correct typographical and textual errors.

Notice is hereby given of the appointment of members to the Performance Review Board (PRB) of the EEOC.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) gives notice that it has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for extension without change of the information collection described below. No public comments were received in response to the EEOC's May 5, 2020 60 day notice soliciting comments on the proposed extension of this collection.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) proposes to amend its procedural regulations to establish rules for issuing guidance. These rules make guidance documents readily available to the public, ensure that guidance will be treated as non- binding, require a notice and public comment period for significant guidance, and establish a public petition process for the issuance, amendment, or repeal of guidance.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) announces that it intends to submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for reinstatement without change of the information collection described below.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) announces that it has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for a three-year PRA approval of Component 1 of the Employer Information Report (EEO-1). The EEOC is seeking OMB approval to remove Component 1 from OMB control number 3046-0007 and assign it a new PRA control number. The EEOC is not submitting a request to approve Component 2 of the EEO-1 collection.

The EEOC is correcting the RIN Number of its item titled ``2019 Adjustment of the Penalty for Violation of Notice Posting Requirements,'' and adding to the authority citation to identify the statutory authority for the EEOC to make adjustments to the penalty for violating notice posting requirements.

Pursuant to Executive Order 13891 and OMB Memorandum M-20-02, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is noticing the February 28, 2020 launch of a single, searchable, indexed database containing all EEOC guidance documents currently in effect.

Notice is hereby given that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) has scheduled a public hearing to gather information and hear public comment on the proposed revision of the Employer Information Report (EEO-1).

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) announces that it intends to submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for a three-year PRA approval of Component 1 of the Employer Information Report (EEO-1). The EEOC intends to seek OMB approval to remove Component 1 from OMB control number 3046-0007 and to request its approval under a new control number. The EEOC does not intend to submit to OMB a request to renew Component 2 under OMB control number 3046- 0007. The EEO-1 Component 1 collections for 2016, 2017, and 2018 under the 3046-0007 control number have been completed. However, the EEO-1 Component 2 collections for 2017 and 2018 are now underway under this same control number, and as discussed in National Women's Law Center, et al. v. Office of Management and Budget, et al., Component 2 approval under control number 3046-0007 will expire no later than April 5, 2021, by order of the court. The EEOC believes a new OMB control number for Component 1 that is separate from the current control number for the Component 2 collection will minimize confusion for EEO-1 filers.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announces immediate reinstatement of the revised EEO-1: Pay Data Collection, and the collection of 2018 pay data (EEO-1 Component 2) from EEO-1 filers by September 30, 2019.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or Commission) is proposing to amend its procedural regulations to explicitly provide for digital transmissions of documents, to clarify the process for deferral to state and local agencies, to update no cause determination procedures, and to correct typographical errors.

This action responds to a decision of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia that vacated the incentive section of the ADA rule effective January 1, 2019.

In accordance with the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015, which further amended the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990, this final rule adjusts for inflation the civil monetary penalty for violation of the notice-posting requirements in Title VII of the Civil Rights act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act.

Notice is hereby given of the appointment of members to the Performance Review Board of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announces that, until further notice, filers subject to the EEO-1 reporting requirement should not submit aggregate data about W-2 (Box 1) income and hours worked, which is the information required by ``Component 2'' of the EEO-1 report as approved on September 29, 2016. However, filers should continue to submit data on the ethnicity, race, and sex of workers by job category (``Component 1'' of the EEO-1 report). This is the same type of EEO-1 data that filers have submitted in the past.
