Illinois Equal Pay Act Remains in Effect

Friday, February 03, 2023 9:00 AM | Anonymous member (Administrator)

The Illinois Equal Pay Act of 2003 is a law that prohibits employers from discriminating between employees based on sex. In 2021 the Illinois legislature passed an amendment to the law by adding Section 11, which requires all private employers with 100 or more employees in Illinois to submit demographic and wage date to IDOL, along with the employer’s most recently filed Annual Employer Information Report EEO-1 and an Equal Pay Compliance Statement certifying that, among other things, the average compensation for its female and minority employees is not consistently below the average compensation for its male and non-minority employees.

A businesses’ total number of employees is the total number of people employed by the business who worked in or were based out of Illinois on December 31 of the twelve-month calendar year immediately prior to the year you are required to submit an EPRC application.

An EPRC application requires a business to submit to IDOL: (1) a $150 filing fee; (2) wage records, including a copy of your most recently filed EEO-1; and (3) an Equal Pay Compliance Statement.

Businesses are required to submit an initial EPRC application between March 24, 2022, and March 23, 2024. IDOL will assign an application due date that is within this timeframe and will notify the business of this due date at least 120 calendar days before your application will be due.
