At that time, EEOC requested approval to revise the race and ethnicity categories on the EEO-5 report to conform to OMB's Standards for Maintaining, Collecting, and Presenting Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved the revised EEO-5 through February 2013. EEOC is now requesting a regular extension without change of the revised EEO-5.
