The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs are stepping up their game and focusing on pay disparities as a form of employment discrimination. This training program will offer attendees an understanding of Title VII, sex discrimination and pay equity to help employers get ahead of the EEOC/OFCCP’s new priority and avert pay discrimination claims.
This webinar will provide an introduction to these issues and the steps you need to take to get you headed in the right direction. It will discuss Title VII and offer a historical perspective on past efforts to attain pay equity with regulations such as the Equal Pay Act, Lilly Ledbetter Act, and the Paycheck Fairness Act.
The session will also include other key discussions such as the new EEO-1 reporting requirements, current requirements for federal contractors, and other best practices for employers.
Why Should You Attend:
The pay gap and pay discrimination will be of increasing concern - if for no other reason than the EEOC and the OFCCP’s new focus on this issue. If your employment practices, including your hiring, promotion, and compensation policies and procedures do not reflect this then your efforts at ensuring a discrimination-free workplace are at best incomplete - and you will be vulnerable to discrimination claims and liability on yet another front.This webinar will provide an introduction to these issues and the steps you need to take to get you headed in the right direction.
