2 In calculating burden, data from multiple 

sources are used. Some of these sources do not 

allow us to identify only those employers who are 

covered by Title VII (employers with 15 or more 

employees).

7The average number of applications received per 

job opening in 2018, according to the private career

8Bureau of Labor Statistics Job Openings and 

Labor Turnover Survey, 2018 annual level data (Not 

seasonally adjusted), (http://www.bls.gov/jlt/ 

data.htm) is the source of the original data. The BLS 

figure includes new hires in both the public and the 

private sectors across all employer sizes. 

9Based on the 10th percentile hourly wage for 

Human Resources Specialist in 2018 (https://

www.bls.gov/oes/2018/may/oes131071.htm). The 

10th percentile is slightly lower than the average 

salary for an entry-level Human Resources 

Specialist (https://www.ziprecruiter.com/Salaries/ 

Entry-Level-Human-Resources-Specialist-Salary).

Census of Governments (https://www.census.gov/

11This assumes that the new hires in 2018 were 

distributed equally across firm and agency sizes. In 

2018, 64,286,000 new hires were in the private 

sector 86.5% of which would be 55,575,000 new 

hires estimated for firms with at least 15 employees. 

Similarly, 4,310,000 new hires were in the public 

sector. 95.9% of which would be 4,133,000 new 

hires into governments with at least 15 employees. 

This totals approximately 59,708,000 new hires in 

Title VII locations. The remainder of the burden 

hour calculations remain the same.

Census. (https://www.census.gov/content/census/ 

en/data/datasets/2017/econ/susb/2017-susb.html). 

13See 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). 

burden analysis correctly and 

appropriately accounts for the burden 

on regulated entities of collecting and 

maintaining applicant flow data under 

UGESP. 

Burden Statement: There are no 

reporting requirements associated with 

UGESP. The burden being estimated is 

the cost of collecting and storing a job 

applicant’s gender, race, and ethnicity 

data. 

The only paperwork burden derives 

from this recordkeeping. Only 

employers covered under Title VII and 

Executive Order 11246 are subject to 

UGESP. However, for the purposes of 

burden calculation, data for all 

employers are counted.2 The number of 

employers with 15 or more employees is 

estimated at 957,005 which combines 

estimates from private employment,3

the public sector,4 and referral unions.5

Employers with 15 or more employees 

represent approximately 15.3% of all 

employers in the U.S. and employ about 

87.7% of all employees in the U.S.6

This burden assessment is based on 

an estimate of the number of job 

applications submitted to all employers 

in one year, including paper-based and 

electronic applications. The total 

number of job applications submitted 

every year to covered employers is 

estimated to be 1,989,375,182, based on 

an average of approximately 29 

applications 7 for every hire and a 

Bureau of Labor Statistics data estimate 

of 68,594,000 annual hires.8 This figure 

also includes 149,182 applicants for 

union membership reported on the 

EEO–3 form for 2018. 

The employer burden associated with 

collecting and storing applicant 

demographic data is based on the 

following assumptions: Applicants 

would need to be asked to provide three 

pieces of information—sex, race/ 

ethnicity, and an identification number 

(a total of approximately 13 keystrokes); 

the employer may need to transfer 

information received to a database 

either manually or electronically 

(although we believe it likely that many 

employers utilize HR software that 

handles employment applications as 

well as the rest of the employers HR 

needs); and the employer would need to 

store the 13 characters of information 

for each applicant. Recordkeeping costs 

and burden are assumed to be the time 

cost associated with entering 13 

keystrokes. 

Assuming that the required 

recordkeeping takes 30 seconds per 

record, and assuming a total of 

1,989,375,182 paper and electronic 

applications per year (as calculated 

above), the resulting UGESP burden 

hours would be16,578,127. Based on a 

wage rate of $17.44 9 per hour for the 

individuals entering the data, the 

collection and storage of applicant 

demographic data would come to 

approximately $289,122,526 per year. 

We expect that the foregoing 

assumptions 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 very large, the average burden per 

employer is relatively small. We 

estimate that UGESP applies to 957,005 

employers, which is about 15.3% of all 

employers in the U.S, and who employ 

about 87.7% of all employees in the U.S 

(86.5% of private employees and 95.9% 

of government employees) 10. Therefore, 

the estimated cost per covered employer 

is about $263.11 Additionally, 35.0% of 

employees work for firms with at least 

5,000 employees,12 and it is likely the 

burden of entry for these firms is 

transferred to the applicants via use of 

electronic application systems. UGESP 

also allows for simplified recordkeeping 

for employers with more than 15 but 

less than 100 employees.13
