Pay Ratio Rules Published in the Federal Register

Broc Romanek, CompensationStandards.com

Yesterday, the SEC’s pay ratio rules were published in the Federal Register – so they have an effective date of October 19, 2015. That’s not the compliance date however…

In the wake of the pay ratio rules being adopted, you need to get a handle on what to do now – as there are tasks you should be accomplishing way ahead of your disclosure obligation. Tune into our “Pay Ratio Workshop” next Tuesday, August 25th – an audio-only event (whose archive will be up immediately if you can’t attend live). Register Now!

Here’s a list of the nine panels that will span over four hours of practical instruction on Tuesday:

– “Overview: The Final Rules”
– “Getting Ready for Compliance: Sampling & Other Data Issues”
– “Streamlining Your Compliance Efforts”
– “Board Presentations: What To Tell Boards Now”
– “Disclosure: Handling the Transition Period”
– “Parsing Model Disclosures: US-Only Workforces”
– “Parsing Model Disclosures: Global Workforces”
– “Parsing a Recent Pay Ratio Disclosure”
– “How to Handle PR & Employee Fallout”
