The U.S. Department of Labor has decided not to appeal a decision issued last month by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California that would require the agency to release the federal contractors' employment diversity reports (known as EEO-1 reports) of 55 companies,; however, one of those companies, Synopsys, Inc., has filed a motion to intervene in the case, which the court indicated that it was “inclined to grant” in an order issued on Feb. 4, 2020.
