Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
The Nevada Equal Rights Commission enforces the discrimination provisions of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. If persons of different genders doing the same job, same requirements, etc., are being paid differently, the Nevada Equal Rights Commission can accept a charge under the Equal Pay Act and process it under that statute and Title VII as gender discrimination.
The state statutes and regulations mostly provide authority for the Commission regarding enforcement. The statute contains a simple declaration of public policy, as follows:
“It is hereby declared to be the public policy of the State of Nevada to protect the welfare, prosperity, health and peace of all the people of the State, and to foster the right of all persons reasonably to seek, obtain and hold employment and housing accommodations, and reasonably to seek and be granted services in places of public accommodation without discrimination, distinction or restriction because of race, religious creed, color, age, sex, disability, national origin or ancestry.”
Posting
The Commission has a poster which states that discrimination is against the law, and provides contact information for the Commission.
