The Equal Pay Act states that all forms of pay covered under this law including bonuses, overtime pay, salary, stock options, vacation pay, and reimbursements for travel require what form of action?
  1. That men and women be paid according to their job title
  2. That men and women in the same workplace be given equal pay for equal work
  3. That men and women in different workplaces be given equal pay
  4. That men and women have their pay based on gender only
Explanation
Answer - B - The Equal Pay Act states that job content, not job titles, determines whether they are substantially equal. It is against the law for men and women to have an inequality in pay based on their sex. An individual alleging a violation of this act may go directly to court without first contacting the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
