  • How employers can implement policies and practices to comply with these new laws;

  • How to determine whether the workforce pay scale complies with the Equal Pay Act;
  • What differentials in compensation are permissible under the Equal Pay Act;
  • Recordkeeping requirements under the new laws;
  • The pros and cons of arbitration agreements;
  • Interaction between new laws and other federal and state laws.
