Course/Product Description Title: Pay Equity And Wage Discrimination: Six Critical Reasons To Focus On Equal Pay Date / Time: Recorded Format: Audio Conference Description: Why should an employer care about pay equity? Here are six good reasons... Class Actions – A federal appeals court recently ruled that a gender discrimination claim against Wal-Mart could go forward as one of the biggest class-action lawsuits in history, Rise in EEOC Activity – A record-breaking 93,000 workplace discrimination charges were filed with the EEOC in 2009. National Equal Pay Enforcement Task Force – President Obama is cracking down on violations of equal pay laws so that women get equal pay for an equal day’s work. Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act – The new law changes the statutory time limit for filing pay discrimination claims and declares that a new unlawful employment practice occurs with each paycheck that comes after the initial discriminatory pay decision. Paycheck Fairness Act (PFA) – This proposed legislation could increase damage awards and the size of class actions as well as the burden for employers to justify pay differentials. Impact of the economic downturn – Pay freezes, workforce reduction and other cost-cutting measures may open the flood-gates for pay inequity claims. Has your company been proactive about pay equity? Can you determine how your compensation practices would stack up against a pay equity claim? During this critical audio conference you will learn: How rulings (like the one at Wal-Mart) interpret pay equity issues and what it means to your organization How to audit your compensation structure to reveal internal pay inequities Implications of the Paycheck Fairness Act, the Fair Pay Act, and the Equal Pay Act How the Paycheck Fairness Act could change the Equal Pay Act and strengthen penalties for violations Common Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) violations and how to avoid them How FLSA will change if the Fair Pay Act becomes law and how this will alter pay requirements Best methods for communicating and documenting pay decision rationale How the EEOC defines lawful pay differentials Which federal and state regulatory issues apply and when Methods for setting non-discriminatory starting pay and annual increases Cannot Attend The Live Presentation?
