agency’s data collections, including the
EEO–3 data collection. Since OEDA’s
creation in 2018, the EEOC has
undertaken several efforts to modernize
the agency’s data collections and
improve the quality of data collected.
OEDA also has streamlined functions,
such as providing additional self-service
options, resource materials, and an
online support message center.
As part of these ongoing
modernization efforts, and in response
to a recent GAO report 16 which
recommended that the EEOC improve
its approach to routinely identify local
unions required to file the EEO–3
report, OEDA has undertaken measures
to enhance the agency’s EEO–3 frame
(i.e., filer roster or master list) of
potentially eligible filers. By comparing
the EEOC’s 2022 EEO–3 frame to a list
of active unions from the U.S.
Department of Labor’s Office of Labor
for the largest amount of time spent
biennially on EEO–3 reporting. These
job categories include: (1) Secretaries
and Administrative Assistants; (2)
Administrative Services and Facilities
Managers; (3) Bookkeeping, Accounting,
and Auditing Clerks; and (4) ExecutiveLevel Staff.19
Additionally, the OFS captures
detailed information on when each filer
starts and certifies their report. The
EEOC used this information from the
most recent EEO–3 data collection (i.e.,
2022) to calculate more precise burden
hour estimates.20 As shown in Table 1
below, the estimated average hour
burden per report is 1.49 hours. The
total estimated biennial respondent
burden for all filers is 8,922 hours. The
estimated average burden hour cost per
report is $59.90, and the estimated total
burden hour cost for all filers per
biennial collection is $359,091.

database,17 OEDA identified more than
5,000 local unions that may be eligible
to file during the next biennial EEO–3
data collection. With the addition of
these unions to the EEO–3 frame and
considering response rates during the
2022 EEO–3 data collection, OEDA now
estimates 5,999 potential respondents to
the agency’s next EEO–3 data
collection.18
The EEOC has also updated its
methodology for calculating the biennial
burden of the EEO–3 data collection to
better reflect the types of personnel
responsible for preparing and filing
these reports on behalf of their unions.
Based upon job titles provided during
the 2022 EEO–3 data collection by
individuals completing the report
within the OFS, the EEOC has identified
four specific job categories that account
