This collection is approved until January 2011 under the following terms of clearance: 1) The EEO-5 collection will not be used again after the 2010 reporting period unless it complies with OMB's 1997 standards for data on race and ethnicity and does not conflict with the Department of Education's (ED) collections of school staff data on race and ethnicity. 2) During the current (2010) reporting period, respondents claiming a reporting hardship because they collected race and ethnicity data in accordance with ED's requirements, and thus do not have the data in the format required by the EEO-5, will be exempt from reporting on the EEO-5 currently in the field. To be granted an exemption, respondents need only to inform EEOC that they do not have the race and ethnicity information in the format required by the EEO-5 because they collected the data in accordance with ED's requirements. 3) Respondents granted this exemption would need to submit an alternative report that meets the EEO-5 requirements for data regarding EEO-5 job groups and in the race and ethnicity categories that meet ED's requirements. EEOC will provide an alternative report format to these respondents. 4) EEOC will provide a reasonable filing extension for respondents granted this exemption. 5) By no later than Wednesday, November 3rd, EEOC will announce on its website, in a prominent place, that this exemption is available to respondents. The website announcement will also contain clear instructions regarding who respondents can contact about the exemption and how to get it.
