The act that requires men and women in the same workplace to be paid equally is the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA) in the United States. This federal law mandates that women and men be given equal pay for equal work in the same establishment. The law applies to all employers subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). In addition to the EPA, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 also addresses wage discrimination based on sex and provides additional protections against employment discrimination.
