Pay Equity Act

Laura A. Mitchell

Laura A. Mitchell is a Principal in the Denver, Colorado, office of Jackson Lewis P.C.  She partners with her clients to build pay equity programs that benefit employees and create a stable, high-functioning workplace. A member of the firm’s Pay Equity Resource Group, Laura enjoys counseling companies on the development of proactive and equitable pay practices. In Laura’s version of the reimagined workplace, pay equity would be the rule rather than the exception nationwide and she works with companies across all industries—both new and well-established multi-national organizations of all sizes to realize this vision for her client’s ongoing success. She helps clients understand all issues across the spectrum of their pay equity journey, helping to establish regular annual pay equity analyses as well as counseling organizations on implementation and compliance with government contractor obligations. Committed to putting her client’s organization goals first and foremost, Laura views herself as an extension of her client’s team responsible for providing proactive guidance and engaging in transparent, ongoing communication.

Laura also represents companies in OFCCP matters, preparing for and defending OFCCP audits, and counseling employers on issues stemming from OFCCP regulations. She personally oversees the development of hundreds of Affirmative Action Plans for clients each year and is intimately involved in the defense of OFCCP audits. Her approach to compliance is one of facilitation and conciliation while simultaneously advocating in the best interests of her clients.
