- Now perhaps more than ever, federal contractors and employers of all stripes are grappling with an increased focus on pay equity, and it is transforming employer approaches to compensation. Not only are federal contractors dealing with a ramped-up focus on pay equity and technical compensation compliance by OFCCP, in just the past few years states and localities from sea to shining sea have enacted new laws impacting various aspects of employers’ compensation practices. In this session, participants will learn about compensation analysis requirements applicable to contractors and strategies for compliance, OFCCP enforcement priorities and approaches to compensation, and the myriad pay equity-related laws and requirements enacted – and coming down the pike – at the state and local level.
