    The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has proposed revisions to the Local Union Report (EEO-3) and is seeking a three-year approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). This report requires labor organizations with 100 or more members to submit demographic data about their workforce every two years. The EEOC is aiming to improve the reporting process by using a web-based system and better estimating the burden on respondents. Public comments on this proposal are open until January 6, 2025.
