Organizations have made huge strides toward pay equality in the workplace, but there’s still a lot of work to be done. Pay equity laws have been in existence for decades. In addition to federal legislation, many states and local municipalities are closely examining their laws in an effort to close the gender pay gap.

This persistent problem has a host of negative effects on women, their families, and even their employers. Underpaid individuals may express feelings of anger over being mistreated, as well as jealousy towards others who are paid more for performing the same job with the same or less effort.

These feelings can impact the effectiveness and quality of work. Those who know they are being underpaid may decide to seek employment elsewhere, resulting in increased costs for employers who must then hire and train replacements.

There’s an urgent need in organizations for greater awareness to combat pay inequality. This inequality prevents women from being able to compete fairly and be paid equitably. Employers must learn to identify discriminatory practices and learn skills that allow them to interact more effectively, respectfully, and fairly with all workers.

Why Should You Attend:

Every worker has the right to expect equal pay for equal work regardless of their gender, race, religion, national origin, age or physical/mental abilities, and whether they work full time or part-time. A lot of attention has been given to the concept of paying equitably for people doing the same job.

Federal legislation has been passed to prevent wage discrimination. Even with these laws, wage gaps persist. Part of the issue is that pay equity itself is complicated and often misunderstood.  Additionally, there are many and varied solutions.

Participants in this webinar will come away with a solid understanding of what constitutes pay equity, the laws governing pay equity, strategies to avoid pay discrimination, and what organizations can do to cultivate a work environment that will lead to more equitable outcomes for their workers.
