Complimentary Breakfast Briefing~The Amended CA Fair Pay Act The Next Wage/Hour Class Action Threat

07.29.2015

Program: 7:30am - 4:00pm

Location: San Bernardino DoubleTree

The passage of the amendments to the California Fair Pay Act (CFPA), effective January 1, 2016, sent a clear message: the burden is on employers to close the gender wage gap and to explain any pay disparity or risk costly class-action lawsuits and investigations.

Learn how the amendments have made it easier for employees to raise pay discrimination claims. We will discuss the following changes:

A lower bar to prove violations.
Burden shifts to employers to affirmatively demonstrate that the pay differential is based on specified factors.
Extends the period of time employers are required to maintain wage and other employment records.
Forbids employers from prohibiting employees from engaging in certain activity related to their wages.
Prohibits retaliation and creates a private right of action for retaliation claims.
New plans from the EEOC to report equal pay data.

Join us to discuss the implications of these amendments, a look into the next class action threat and receive practical practice tips to prepare and defend against Fair Pay Act claims.

Attendance is complimentary.
