EQUAL PAY ACT
Equal Pay Act Services
At Jessica Law Attorney, we are dedicated to upholding the principles of equality and justice in the workplace. Our team of experienced attorneys is well-versed in the Equal Pay Act (EPA) and is committed to ensuring that both employees and employers understand their rights and obligations under this vital legislation
Understanding the Equal Pay Act (EPA)
The Equal Pay Act passed in 1963, is a federal law that prohibits wage discrimination based on gender. It requires that men and women be paid the same wage for performing substantially equal work in the same establishment. This means that if two employees, regardless of their gender, perform similar job duties with equal skill, effort, and responsibility, they should receive equal compensation.
Our Equal Pay Act Services:
1. Legal Consultation:
Our expert attorneys provide legal consultation to both employees and employers on their rights and responsibilities under the EPA. We’ll help you understand how the EPA applies to your specific situation.
2. Equal Pay Audits:
For employers, we offer Equal Pay Audits to assess your company’s pay practices and identify potential areas of non-compliance. Our goal is to ensure that your compensation policies align with the EPA and that you are paying your employees fairly.
