Is Compensation Discrimination Amendment Needed? (Fair Pay Act, Part 2 of 2)
Monday, May 5th, 2008
Last week, in Part 1 of this series, I discussed the Supreme Court’s Ledbetter decision and the criticism of it that led to the introduction of corrective legislation in the form of the Fair Pay Act.
Today, in Part 2, I’ll cover some reasons why I believe the impact of Ledbetter on employees is not as harsh as critics claim, and why compensation discrimination is not as different from other types of job discrimination as they claim.
