The Michigan Daily - Monday, October 28, 1985 -Page 3 BUSINESS Laywer addresses wage disparity By NANCY BRAIMAN An activist concerned with pay equity said Friday night that the culprit of wage disparity is the em- ployer who segregates employees into jobs for men, jobs for women and jobs for minorities. "This segregated work force is the key to wage disparity," said Winn Newman, a Washington attorney, who addressed a crowd of about 40 people in Hale Auditorium. Newman's speech was part of a symposium on comparable worth sponsored by the Women's Law U.S may bqgn export of crude WASHINGTON (AP) - Japan is the export li expected to be one of the buyers when process inc the United States becomes an oil ex- publishinga porter, probably early next year, a regulations Commerce Department spokesman ment period said yesterday.

The principle of comparable worth asserts that employees should receive equal pay for work of comparable value. Newman said the electrical in- dustry is one of the biggest per- petrators of sex-based wage discrimination. He said that women on the assembly line are paid less than men who work as janitors and. groundskeepers. "We need compliance from the public and private employers," said Newman about Title VII of the Pay Equity Act. "Sex- and race-based wage discrimination is prohibited by the pay equity act, but the difficulty is in proving it," said Newman. According to Newman, one must examine company documents and show that the wage disparity could not have occurred by chance. Newman said that most cases of wage disparity occur with jobs that require no prior experience and only a high-school diploma in many instan- ces. Newman said that critics of com- """"' '4' , .'

In a panel discussion Saturday, Gerald Skoning, a lawyer from Chicago, said "the litagation will con- tinue to strike horror and terror in the hearts of employers because they are class action suits and it draws tremendous media attention as it con- tinues.' Skoning wants to continue to politicize the issue and dredge out the statistical data for open inspection by the public. "Congressional reaction to Supreme Court decisions in com- parable worth can be swift and com- prehensive," said Skoning. The symposium covered state and local developments, Title VII litigation, economic and ad- ministrative issues, and comparable worth and race. w.
