Why is OFCCP focused on pay?
Directive 307 and OFCCP’s new methods for analyzing compensation applies to anyone who is a government contractor. However, if you aren’t a government contractor, this topic is still relevant to you. If you are in an HR or legal role, you may have heard that the many states have passed a plethora of laws regarding equal pay over the past three years. They are written in a way that makes it easier for a plaintiff to bring a claim saying that they were paid differently than others based on their race or gender. This could be a very hot item going forward in terms of lawsuits. You don’t have to be a government contractor to get sued by a plaintiff’s attorney. This video covers the OFCCP’s approach per the new directive and what you should be doing.
