Amendments to Colorado’s Equal Pay for Equal Work Act (EPEWA) that will take effect on January 1, 2024, have placed significant new burdens on employers by (a) expanding internal notification requirements to all “job opportunities,” not just promotions, and (b) mandating brand-new post-selection notification requirements.
The Colorado Department of Labor and Employment (CDLE) recently adopted revised Equal Pay Transparency Rules (EPT rules) that provided some explanation regarding how the EPEWA would be enforced. Now the CDLE has issued its long-awaited official guidance via Interpretive Notice & Formal Opinion (INFO) #9A.
