Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Tabulation

The EEO Tabulation 2006-2010 (5-year ACS data) is available through American FactFinder (AFF) (factfinder2.census.gov) beginning November 29, 2012. This 107-table tabulation, which highlights the diversity of the labor force, is based on the American Community Survey (ACS) 2006-2010 five-year data (www.census.gov/acs). The Census Bureau produces this tabulation for four sponsoring Federal agencies: Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Department of Justice (DOJ), the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) at the Department of Labor (DOL) and Office of Personnel Management (OPM). The EEO Tabulation serves as the primary external benchmark for comparing the race, ethnicity, and sex composition of an organization's internal workforce, and the analogous external labor market, within a specified geography and job category.

The EEO Tabulation 2006-2010 (5-year ACS data) contains information similar to comparable tabulations from the 1970, 1980, 1990 and 2000 censuses. Characteristics include sex, race, and Hispanic origin, crosstabulated by citizenship, occupation, industry, age, educational attainment, earnings, and unemployment status. The 2010 Census occupation categories used in this file are based on the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) categories. Tables are tabulated for at least one of three geographic types: residence, worksite, and residence-to-worksite commuting flows. These are tabulated for one or more of the following geographic summary levels: U.S. Total, all states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, metro and micro areas, counties, places, and EEO county sets. All tables also include estimates, percentages, and margins of error.
