Description
Employers across the nation are confronting a host of new or amended employment laws addressing pay equity, pay inquiry, and paid sick leave. For instance, various U.S. municipalities and states, including New York City, Philadelphia, New York, California, and Puerto Rico have also enacted new legislation that prohibits employers from asking applicants about their current or past salary, creating additional compliance and recruitment challenges for employers. Additionally, various states and localities have adopted or are considering mandatory paid sick leave laws, adding to the assortment of new employer requirements. So what will the future workplace look like for women? This session will cover: - Current state of pay discrimination law in key jurisdictions - Potential future components of employee benefits and protections being considered at the State and Federal level - Should employers adopt one universal approach to these laws, anticipating the continued liberalization of laws, versus a multi-jurisdictional approach?
