Eeoc Pay

EEOC pay regulations are part of the Equal Pay Act of 1963, which says that men and women be given equal pay for equal work in the same establishment. The jobs need not be identical, but they must be substantially equal. It is job content, not job titles, that determines whether jobs are substantially equal. In addition, there are equal pay requirements that are covered under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) of 1967. All of these laws are designed to protect workers from receiving lower pay for doing the same job based on some discriminatory factor. All of these laws are enforced by the EEOC or Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, an agency of the federal government. Employees who believe that they are discriminated against through lower pay for some protected reason can file a complaint directly with the EEOC.
