Why should you attend?

Currently women make about 78 cents per dollar paid to a man. African American women make even less – about 64 cents on the dollar paid to a man. Hispanic woman make about 55 cents on the dollar paid to a man. While part of the discrepancies can be the result of lifestyle choices – delaying career plans to care for small children or unwillingness to work overtime for example. These “lifestyle” decisions, however, cannot explain all of the discrepancies that are occurring. Two federal agencies – the Office of Federal Contract Compliance and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission – have stated that pay discrimination is a primary focus of their agenda in years to come. Employers should be taking steps now to audit their own practices to ensure that their pay decisions are based on sound business reasons. This webinar will walk you through the issues and discuss what you should be doing now.
