- Title
BEYOND THE PAYCHECK FAIRNESS ACT: MANDATORY WAGE DISCLOSURE LAWS-- A NECESSARY TOOL FOR CLOSING THE RESIDUAL GENDER WAGE GAP.
- Authors
KULOW, MARIANNE DELPO
- Abstract
Despite the presence of three federal statutes outlawing gender discrimination in wages, United States women continue to earn only 77 cents to the male dollar. One reason that many identify for part of the remaining gap is that wage dis-crimination often goes undetected by its victims because salaries of comparably employed males are usually private information. Therefore, some suggest that mandatory wage disclosure laws are necessary to completely close the gap. This Article makes the case for adoption of such a statute.
