On each regular payday, the Superintendent or designee shall deliver or make available to each employee, by mail or electronically, or shall provide at the employee’s normal place of employment during employment hours for all shifts a wage statement showing, at a minimum, the identity of the employer, the hours for which the employee was paid, the wages earned by the employee and deductions made for the employee.  Information on hours worked for employees who are exempt from overtime under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, under 29 C.F.R. part 541, does not need to be provided unless the District has established a policy or practice of paying to, or on behalf of, exempt employees overtime or bonus or a payment based on hours worked, whereupon the Superintendent or designee shall send, or otherwise provide, a statement to the exempt employees showing the hours the employee worked or the payments made to the employee by the employer, as applicable.

 

The District will not terminate or retaliate against any employee for inquiring about or sharing compensation information for the purpose of determining whether the District gives equal pay for equal work.  However, an employee with authorized access to wage information as part of their job function who discloses the wages of other employees to those who do not have authorized access to other employees’ compensation information may be disciplined for such disclosure, up to and including termination, unless the disclosure is made in response to a complaint or investigation proceeding, hearing or other similar action.
