The Next Wave: Pay Equity Laws

In Washington and around the country, policymakers are increasingly focusing on equal pay, with the goal of eliminating the persistent wage gap between male and female workers.

On September 29, 2016, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced that revised EEO-1 reports will include pay data and hours worked by race, ethnicity, sex and job category. California, Maryland, Massachusetts and New York have recently enacted wide ranging equal pay legislation. Federal contractors must comply with President Obama’s recent Executive Order regarding Pay Transparency. These new laws and the mandated reporting of pay practices will increase the risk of equal pay and pay discrimination claims.

This program will address the requirements associated with this new wave of anti-discrimination legislation and other requirements, explore how to determine whether you are compliant, and discuss best practices for mitigating your risk.
