Pursuant to Federal law in effect on the date of enactment of this Act: No employer shall discriminate, within any establishment in which employees are employed by the employer, between employees on the basis of sex by paying wages to employees in such establishment at a rate less than the rate at which the employer pays wages to employees of the opposite sex in such establishment for equal work on jobs the performance of which requires equal skill, effort, and responsibility, and which are performed under similar working conditions, except where such payment is made pursuant to— a seniority system; a merit system; a system which measures earnings by quantity or quality of production; or a differential based on any other factor other than sex.
An employer who is paying a wage rate differential in violation of this section shall not, in order to comply with the provisions of this section, reduce the wage rate of any employee. Every employer, employment agency, and labor organization, as the case may be, shall post and keep posted in conspicuous places upon its premises where notices to employees, applicants for employment, and members are customarily posted, a notice to be prepared or approved by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission that sets forth excerpts from, or summaries of, the pertinent provisions of this Act (including the amendments made by this Act) and of title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000e et seq. ), and information pertinent to the filing of a complaint.
