The new Pay Transparency Act came into force in July 2017. The aim is to ensure equal pay for women and men for equal work or work of equal value.
In a previous After-Work-Shop, Ogletree Deakins had already informed the participants about the new obligations and challenges for companies. The aim now is to shed light on the requirements of the Pay Transparency Act, particularly with regard to legally compliant job evaluation in company practice. The joint keynote speech aims to clarify fundamental questions with the participants, such as
Are you affected by the law?
When is there an individual right to information?
Which jobs are actually comparable?
What is the salary structure for these jobs?
How can it be demonstrated what the company is actually doing to ensure equal treatment between men and women or how it “justifies” a differentiation?
On the other hand, participants will also be provided with a manageable job evaluation system to support companies in setting up an “Equal Payment System”.
You are cordially invited to our next cooperation event on Thursday, October 12, 2017, at 6:00 pm at Stone Brewing Berlin (Im Marienpark 23, 12107 Berlin).
Together with our guests, we look forward to an exciting event in a “biersonderer” atmosphere and an interesting exchange of experiences at the subsequent get-together.
