No employee with status within one or more protected 7 class or classes shall be paid a wage at a rate less than the rate at 8 which an employee [of the opposite sex] without status within the same 9 protected class or classes in the same establishment is paid for: (a) 10 equal work on a job the performance of which requires equal skill, 11 effort and responsibility, and which is performed under similar working 12 conditions, or (b) substantially similar work, when viewed as a compos- 13 ite of skill, effort, and responsibility, and performed under similar 14 working conditions; except where payment is made pursuant to a differen- 15 tial based on: 16 [a.] (i) a seniority system; 17 [b.] (ii) a merit system; 18 [c.] (iii) a system which measures earnings by quantity or quality of 19 production; or 20 [d.] (iv) a bona fide factor other than [sex] status within one or 21 more protected class or classes, such as education, training, or experi- EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD10298-06-9S. 5248--B 2 1 ence.

Such exception under this paragraph shall not apply when 6 the employee demonstrates [(A)] (1) that an employer uses a particular 7 employment practice that causes a disparate impact on the basis of [sex] 8 status within one or more protected class or classes, [(B)] (2) that an 9 alternative employment practice exists that would serve the same busi- 10 ness purpose and not produce such differential, and [(C)] (3) that the 11 employer has refused to adopt such alternative practice. 12 2. For the purpose of subdivision one of this section[,]: (a) "busi- 13 ness necessity" shall be defined as a factor that bears a manifest 14 relationship to the employment in question, and (b) "protected class" 15 shall include age, race, creed, color, national origin, sexual orien- 16 tation, gender identity or expression, military status, sex, disability, 17 predisposing genetic characteristics, familial status, marital status, 18 or domestic violence victim status, and any employee protected from 19 discrimination pursuant to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of subdivision 20 one of section two hundred ninety-six and any intern protected from 21 discrimination pursuant to section two hundred ninety-six-c of the exec- 22 utive law. 23 § 2.

This act shall take effect on the ninetieth day after it shall 32 have become a law.
