Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
The New Hampshire statutes do not contain language similar to that in the federal Equal Pay Act. However, the unlawful practices do include language that it is unlawful to discriminate against an individual on the basis of sex in compensation or in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment.
Effective January 1, 2015, the state law provides a statute of limitations running three years from the “discovery of the violation,” as compared to the previous statute which provided one year. However, the employee is limited to recovery of wages within four years of the commencement of a claim.
Recordkeeping
Every employer must keep a true and accurate record of the hours worked by each employee, wages paid, and classification of employment when necessary.
Posting
Every covered employer or entity must post in a conspicuous place or places on his premises a notice prepared or approved by the Commission for Human Rights which sets forth excerpts of the Law Against Discrimination and other relevant information necessary to explain the law.
