Should employers be required to pay men and women the same salary for the same job?
No, the current requirements in the Equal Pay Act of 1963 are already sufficient
While it's true that the Equal Pay Act of 1963 has not fully eradicated pay disparities, it has provided a legal framework for individuals to challenge perceived discrimination. For instance, Lilly Ledbetter's case against Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company led to the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, further strengthening the provisions of the Equal Pay Act. Despite this, pay ambiguity remains due to other factors like negotiation skills and career interruptions. Do you think implementing strict pay transparency policies could be a possible solution to this?
