Registration is now open for Equal Pay: Understanding How Your Organization Rates Against the Law, Trends and Movements. The HASC educational program takes place on Thursday, Sept. 26 at HASC’s downtown Los Angeles offices.

The three-hour seminar provides insight to legal and social trends aimed at increasing gender-based fairness and transparency in the workplace. These issues are at the core of social movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp, and employers are taking notice in order to attract and retain talent – while deterring litigation.

In 2016, California became a trendsetter in adopting the nation’s most robust equal pay law. Not surprisingly, these legal and cultural changes are generating increased litigation, changes in hiring and arbitration and separation agreements, as well as new laws – including the salary history question ban.

At the end of this session, participants will be able to:

• Assess and navigate the California and federal legal landscape

• Classify equal pay legislative development in the #MeToo era

• Identify trends in litigation – including the salary history question ban

• Recognize how pay equity trends affect your organization’s practices

The course is taught by Kirstin E. Muller, a seasoned litigator and partner at Hirschfeld Kraemer. Her clients are varied, from startups to midsize Fortune 500 companies. Muller vigorously defends her clients in multiple state and federal courts and jurisdictions.
