The Paycheck Fairness Act amends the Fair Labor Standards Act to strengthen enforcement of equal pay requirements based on sex. The bill expands the definition of sex to include pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex characteristics; modifies the employer defense for pay differentials to require that any non-sex-based factor be job-related and consistent with business necessity; and prohibits retaliation against employees who discuss or disclose wages. The bill also enhances penalties for violations, including compensatory and punitive damages, allows class action lawsuits for equal pay claims, and transfers enforcement authority to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
