Session Title: Pay-Equity Audits That Reduce Risk Without Creating It
Speakers: Jennifer Shaw & Joseph Beachboard
Session Description: Pay equity remains one of the fastest-growing areas of employment litigation and regulatory enforcement. Yet many employers hesitate to conduct pay-equity audits because they fear creating evidence that could later be used against them. This practical session explores how organizations can evaluate compensation practices while reducing legal risk. Participants will learn when and how to conduct privileged pay-equity reviews, identify legitimate pay differentials, assess compensation policies and practices, document corrective actions, and partner effectively with legal counsel. The session also examines recent legal developments and provides practical strategies for strengthening pay practices while supporting fairness, transparency, and compliance.

Participants will learn how to recognize accommodation requests, conduct legally compliant interactive processes, evaluate undue hardship, document decisions, and manage overlapping legal obligations. Through practical examples and recent legal developments, attendees will leave with strategies to improve consistency, reduce litigation risk, and build workplaces where employees can contribute and succeed while employers meet their legal responsibilities.
