New Compensation Directive Addressing Compensation Discrimination

August 24, 2018 By editor

The OFCCP directive Analysis of Contractor Compensation Practices During a Compliance Evaluation outlines OFCCP’s standard procedures for reviewing contractor compensation practices during a compliance evaluation. This directive replaces OFCCP Directive 2013-03 (known as Directive 307) and clarifies OFCCP’s approach to compensation evaluations including the use of statistical and other evidence, pay analysis groupings, and statistical modeling. The directive reinforces OFCCP’s commitment to greater transparency, consistency and efficiency in compliance evaluations.

Stay tuned for Biddle’s more in-depth review of the new Compensation Directive in an upcoming blog.

Webinar Description:

Under the Obama Administration, federal enforcement agencies (e.g., EEOC and OFCCP) have been tasked with responsibility of bridging the wage gap between Men/Women/Minorities and have trained their sights on pay equity discrimination. Not surprisingly, the rise in OFCCP audit activities and enforcement actions taken by both the EEOC and OFCCP has caught many companies unprepared and largely compromised. Now with the OFCCP’s release of Directive 307, the OFCCP has provided a classic roadmap on how they will investigate and enforce pay equity issues. Directive 307 is an important document. It is a culmination of nearly two decades of lessons learned and the strategies therein represent the breadth of challenges a company can expect to face in any Title VII pay equity discrimination matter. In this presentation Dr. Dan Kuang, will expose key components of Directive 307 and discuss general and current compensation analysis methods and strategies in pay equity investigations.
