!Version 1
The EEO-4 data upload file specifications for 2021 reporting uses an Excel XLSX format. Each Excel data upload file represents one state or local government filing an EEO-4 Report, including all of their functions. Filers submitting on behalf of multiple state or local governments will need to provide multiple Excel data upload files. To begin, filers must create an account and provide some preliminary information on the state or local government in the EEO-4 Online filing System in order to upload a data file. Uploaded data files must meet all submission requirements to be accepted. Filers must certify their submission to complete the reporting process.

*No decimals are allowed.
*Letters (a, b, c, etc.) and special characters (!, @, #, etc.) are not allowed.

!The following four Excel worksheets (tabs) comprise this data upload file:
*__Instructions Worksheet (Tab 1)__: No data fields collected.
*__Full-Time Worksheet (Tab 2)__: Full-time employee data should cover the payroll period which includes June 30th of the reporting year (i.e., 2021). Data can be entered only into columns D-Q and rows 2-961.
*__Other Than Full-Time Worksheet (Tab 3)__: Part-time employee data should cover the payroll period which includes June 30th of the reporting year (i.e., 2021). Data can be entered only into columns C-P and rows 2-121.
