Salary and Job Level reduction
Performing in the same role with no changes to job duties, functions or responsibilities, can an employer lower the job grade by 2 levels resulting in @ $20K pay cut for an exempt salaried employee. This is a very large employer and it will only affect 3 individuals, all female over 40 & 2 are minorities. Those put into a new role keep same job grade & pay are all white males under or @ 40.

Re: Salary and Job Level reduction
An employer can do what it wants...but if there is a discrimination claim, only a Court will decide...and in some cases the EEOC can help...either State or Federal....but with that said..contact an employment lawyer NOW...you have a short time to act and your rights could be lost
