6/3/2019 Group Watch: Equal Pay Passes
Alabama joined the majority of other states in the union with the passage of an equal bay bill, (Mississippi is the only state left without one), which prohibits any business and employer from discriminating by paying a lesser amount for the same work to any person based solely on their gender or race. The bill provides exceptions for pay based on seniority, merit systems, systems that base earnings on quality or quantity of production or a differential based on any factor other than race or gender.
