14See 29 CFR 1607.15A(1): Simplified 

recordkeeping for users with less than 100 

employees. In order to minimize recordkeeping 

burdens on employers who employ one hundred 

(100) or fewer employees, and other users not 

required to file EEO–1, et seq., reports, such users 

may satisfy the requirements of this section 15 if 

they maintain and have available records showing, 

for each year: (a) The number of persons hired, 

promoted, and terminated for each job, by sex, and 

where appropriate by race and national origin; 

(b)The number of applicants for hire and promotion 

by sex and where appropriate by race and national 

origin; and (c) The selection procedures utilized 

(either standardized or not standardized). 

individuals entering the data, the 

collection and storage of applicant 

demographic data would come to 

approximately $353,802,267 per year. 

The foregoing assumptions likely are 

over-inclusive because many employers 

have electronic job application 

processes that should be able to capture 

applicant flow data automatically. 

While the burden hours and costs for 

the UGESP recordkeeping requirement 

seem large, the average burden per 

employer is relatively small. UGESP 

applies to an estimated 887,869 

employers, or about 13.5% of employers 

in the U.S., and these employers employ 

about 86.2% of employees in the U.S.12

Therefore, the estimated cost per 

covered employer is about $398. 

Additionally, 36.4% of employees work 

for firms with at least 5,000 

employees,13 for which the burden of 

data entry is transferred to the 

applicants via use of electronic 

application systems. Finally, UGESP 

allows for simplified recordkeeping for 

employers with more than 15 but less 

than 100 employees.14
