Two Truths and a Lie: Collecting, Storing, and Using Demographic Data in 2026
Registration for this free webinar is currently open.
Date: July 22, 2026 (2:00 PM - 2:30 PM EDT)
Recent shifts in the federal regulatory landscape have left many employers questioning their demographic data practices. Executive orders, evolving EEOC guidance, high-profile litigation, and changing state-level requirements have generated significant uncertainty about what employers can, should, and must do when it comes to demographic data.
The reality is that sound demographic data collection practices have not fundamentally changed. Title VII obligations remain, the business case for understanding your workforce remains, and the legal frameworks that have long governed how employers collect, store, and use this information remain largely intact.
Join DCI Consulting for a focused 30-minute session designed to separate fact from fiction and reaffirm the principles that continue to guide responsible demographic data practices in 2026.
Topics will include:
- Current EEOC guidance, Title VII considerations, and lessons from EEOC v. Crothall
- Best practices for keeping demographic data appropriately separated from decision-makers
- Considerations for collecting Middle Eastern and North African demographic data
- The risks and rewards of having—or not having—demographic data available, potential impacts now and in the future
