Can you help with a paper on gender pay inequality?

Gender Pay Inequity

(Note the word count and the point value for this assignment)

The Equal Pay Act was passed in 1963. This was one year before the Civil Rights Act was enacted.

The purpose of the Equal Pay Act was to insure that men and women doing equal work would receive the same pay.

However, even today the issue of inequality in pay between male and female workers remains a topic of discussion and litigation.

Included in this week’s Power Points are two slides that address the new EEOC reporting requirements concerning gender pay equity.

The first slide describes the objective of the proposed change.

The second slide is a copy of the new EEO-1 form that the EEOC will require submission from firms employing over 100 workers.

Also included in this week’s assignment block is a link to an article by Robert J. Samuelson of the Washington Post. Mr. Samuelson has made some observations about the issue of gender pay inequity in the United States.

The assignment:
