This sounds like a nightmare of unnecessary government regulation. It also does not mean that it's going to close the gender pay gap, because as long as women are more likely to choose lower-paying or more family-friendly professions and are more likely to take more time off with children, they will not be performing equal work.



Yes, because the goal isn't to close the pay gap for unequal work, just equal work. You get it! Good work!
