Lawffice Links - President Obama on Equal Pay and New EEO-1s

On Friday, President Obama made some announcements regarding his efforts to address pay equity. He timed them to match the 7th anniversary of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act"

• From the White House Blog: Taking Action to Advance Equal Pay
• President Obama is once again pushing the Paycheck Fairness Act. Jon Hyman has a good summary of an early version of the bill: Do you know? What is the Paycheck Fairness Act and why should employers be concerned?
• The Council of Economic Advisers released an issue brief: Gender Pay Gap on the Anniversary of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act
• Part of the plan is for the EEOC to collect more data via revisions to the EEO-1 form. Eric Meyer has a good (and entertaining) post: Those EEO-1s you love to complete are gonna get more complicated

That should keep you busy for awhile.
