    Event Synopsis:
    Pay equity laws have long been introduced in the labor and employment landscape, but in an effort to eliminate gender pay gap and offer pay transparency to their workers, states and cities have started to review and reexamine their laws.

    With pay equity in the limelight, it becomes more important for businesses and organizations to keep themselves abreast with any new compliance regulation to obviate potential discrimination. Along with a stricter pay equity enforcement, employers need to ensure objectivity in setting criteria and compensation policies to avoid discriminatory pay practices and assure compliance with the current pay equity legislation.

    In this LIVE Webcast, a panel of thought leaders and professionals will provide the audience with a sneak peek of the recent pay equity landscape. Speakers will discuss in depth the best compliance strategies that businesses must know in light of the most updated activities in the pay equity environment. They will also enumerate practical tips to comply with these laws and minimize legal exposure.

    Key topics include:
    • The 2019 Pay Equity Landscape
    • Pay Equity Compliance Strategies
    • Recent Trends and Updates
    • Common Risks and Pitfalls
    • Practical Guide for Employers
