Short Statement: While there are no changes to the reporting requirement, the EEOC has updated its methodology for calculating annual burden to reflect the time spent by various persons responsible for preparing and filing the EEO–5. The EEOC’s revised burden estimate reflects that the bulk of the work in biennially preparing an EEO–5 report is performed by computer support specialists, executive administrative staff, and payroll and human resource professionals; the revised estimate also includes time spent by school district finance professionals and superintendents who, in a few cases, may consult briefly during the reporting process.
