Introduced
by
To expand a law that bans employer not paying employees of the opposite sex less for equal work on jobs (that require) equal skill, effort, and responsibility…under similar working conditions. Under the bill, differential pay would be banned for “equivalent” job requirements and employee skills (vs. “equal”) performed in “comparable” working conditions (vs. “similar”). Also, the bill would expand this ban to cover wage differentials based on race, religion, race, color, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, height, weight, familial status, or marital status.
Referred to the Committee on Commerce and Trade
