Pay equity presents one of the fastest moving issues in the employment law landscape. Politicians have added the “Pay Gap” to their arsenal of campaign buzz words. State legislatures are busy cranking out new and more stringent pay equity laws. The plaintiffs’ employment bar and state Attorneys General are taking steps to expand the scope of existing laws.
Employers that stay ahead of this trend will be in the best position to avoid litigation and enforcement actions.
Please join us for a discussion on the pay equity landscape that will cover:
- Recently passed and pending legislation that expands employers’ obligations to provide equal pay for equal (or even comparable) work
- How to conduct a pay equity audit
- Best practices for avoiding pay equity claims
- Strategies for responding to pay equity lawsuits and government enforcement actions
