Bill > A08971

This bill amends the civil service law to provide equal pay for similar work protections for individuals belonging to "protected classes," which include age, race, creed, color, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, military status, sex, disability, and other characteristics. The key provisions of the bill are: (1) requiring that positions with the same or substantially similar titles be allocated to the same salary grade, and (2) ensuring that employees within protected classes are not paid less than those outside the same protected classes for similar work in the same establishment, defined as workplaces within the same geographical region, such as a county.
