Legal Question in Discrimination Law in New York
Gender Discrimination
I work in the building supply industry which is prodominantly male and recently got a hold of the salaries paid to employees and found out that a few male employees under me get paid more. I am the only women in a managerial position and feel that these individuals under me should not be paid more. Do I have a case?

Re: Gender Discrimination
It depends...unequal pay may be one facet of your company's discrimination practices. Each discrimination case is fact specific, i.e. each case is different than the next, but some facts need to be present. Unequal pay is a good starting point.
