COMPENSATION EQUALITY

Submitted by ub on

The Equal Pay Act requires that men and women in the same workplace be given equal pay for equal work. The jobs need not be identical, but they must be substantially equal. Job content (not job titles) determines whether jobs are substantially equal. All forms of pay are covered by this law, including salary, overtime pay, bonuses, stock options, profit sharing and bonus plans, life insurance, vacation and holiday pay, cleaning or gasoline allowances, hotel accommodations, reimbursement for travel expenses, and benefits. If there is an inequality in wages between men and women, employers may not reduce the wages of either sex to equalize their pay.

City Island Images has learned from reliable sources that there will be a major announcement about the City Island Bridge this afternoon at Catherine Scott Promenade.

The event has been scheduled around noon time. Everyone who is interested may wish to attend and ask our so called Civic Leaders why this Bridgegate situation had to ever occur? Were they sleeping during the past few years, while officials were planning to replace our City Island bridge?

With the boardwalk complete and the grounds spruced up, Rye Playland is set to open on 5/10.
For the first few days, unlimited rides will cost $15, and tickets go on sale at 10:30 a.m. The rain date for opening day is one week later on May 17.
