Kristina Launey was quoted in a January 6 story from InsideCounsel entitled “California employers need to comply with new Fair Pay Act” on California’s new Fair Pay Act—which went into effect this month—to address the disparity in earnings between women and men. Launey said that general counsel and companies should understand that the Fair Pay Act, though it only amends an existing law … significantly changes the standard for pay equity claims in California, and imposes a brand new affirmative burden of proof on employers to justify pay differentials.
