Welcome to AccelPro Employment Law, where we offer interviews and products to accelerate your professional development. Today, we are featuring a discussion with Maria Papasevastos.
Pay transparency is one of the most vexing issues faced by employment attorneys, companies and human resources executives. The rules vary from state to state, which is confusing enough on its own. It’s made doubly difficult because remote work means employers may be subject to laws in states in which they don’t operate. The legal complexities are compounded by cultural issues: Many employees are uncomfortable talking about how much money they make.
Our guest to sort through these issues is Maria Papasevastos. She is an Associate at Seyfarth who represents employers in multiple areas of employment law, including discrimination, harassment, retaliation and wage and hour matters.
We discuss the recent surge in adoption of pay transparency laws, the challenges employers face in complying with them and how years of performing ballet helped prepare Maria for a career in law.
