Updated and improved EEO Table Tool for the 2014-2018 EEO Tabulation is now available at https://www.census.gov/acs/www/data/eeo-data/eeo-tables-2018/index.php
Updates include additional tables for additional geographies and a new table set of percentages only for 60 CBSAs not available in the original tabulation release.
Main guidance for the tabulation can be found here:
https://www.census.gov/topics/employment/equal-employment-opportunity-tabulation.html
This is the most recent tabulation and can be used to update affirmation action plans, etc. The FULL tabulation can be found at the Census FTP site: www2.census.gov/.../

Thank you for this update. The tool looks very helpful.
Does the Bureau also plan to make available an updated version of job information compiled using the EEO-4 categories? EEO-4 includes a paraprofessional category I did not found in the various tables linked to the tool. EEO-4 is used by various state and local governments for reporting purposes. You can find more info including category definitions here:
https://eeocdata.org/EEO4/howto/instructionbooklet
I'll note that this webpage dates from 2021, so the paraprofessional category appears still to be in use.
There is an older thread about this topic, which can be found here:

Thanks.
Good afternoon, Cliff.
Users preparing reports ran into the same issue in the last Tab. The Office of Justice Programs at the Department of Justice submits crosswalks to us when creating the specifications of the published data. We have a Frequently Asked Questions section on our EEO Tabulation topic webpage on the www.census.gov site. Question 45 his section includes a response to the paraprofessionals issue and who to contact.

In preparing a workforce chart for an EEOP Utilization Report, a recipient may need to reclassify some jobs in its workforce to correspond with the revised job categories used in the EEO Tabulation 2014-2018 (5-year ACS data). For example, to reclassify jobs that were previously classified as Para-Professional, a category that no longer exists, or to reclassify jobs previously designated as simply Protective Services (instead of the new categories of Protective Services Sworn and Protective Services Non-Sworn), one should use the job classifications listed on the U.S. Census Bureau's web site. To access the information from the website, locate the third line from the top of the page, click on the underlined words "State and Local Occupation Groups." The link will lead to the file Occupational Crosswalk to State and Local Government Job Categories. Scrolling downward, find particular job titles listed in the Category Title column, and on the same line for each job title, in the far right column, there is a number that corresponds to one of the eight job categories in the EEO Tabulation 2014-2018 (5-year ACS data) (i.e., one (1) for Officials and Managers, two (2) for Professionals, three (3) for Technicians, four (4) for Protective Services: Sworn, five (5) for Protective Services: Non-sworn, six (6) for Administrative Support, seven (7) for Skilled Craft, and eight (8) for Service Maintenance).
The crosswalk of occupations and its definitions are located in the EEO Tabulation guidance section.
