Brent - I just came back from two conferences on employment law, and the
answer to your question is that there is no hard and fast answer. The
most conservative advice being handed out by employment lawyers is that
you keep everything from personnel files forever. One alternative idea
being tossed around is that everyone receives the same increase, while
employers reward high performers with an annual bonus. The bonus would
not be subject to the Ledbetter rules (so far, anyway). They would only
be subject to a short retention period, which may differ from state to
state but probably would not be longer than five years (ask local
counsel). I doubt Congress will act to clarify the issue. Until a few
of the cases brought under the Ledbetter Act go before the federal
courts and generate opinions, this will remain unsettled. It's always
nice to have a definite answer, but there is not one for this question.

Subject: Ledbetter Act
Hello to all...
I was wondering if anyone on the list would be willing to share their
insights/experiences as to how they have approached and started to make
changes to their policies, programs, or procedures to align themselves
to the Ledbetter Act. I have reached out to my Legal, HR, and Payroll
Departments and given them my take on things, but I think it would be
valuable to me and my company to consider the thoughts and lessons
learned from outside our little corner of the world.
Thanks!
Brent
