epoa-tools: WA EPOA pay transparency tools
Washington state's Equal Pay and Opportunities Act requires pay
ranges to be included on job ads (RCW 49.58.110). WA L&I provides a PDF
complaint form for violations. epoa-tools automates some
of the toil around this form, such as filling out basic information, checking
the right boxes, and optionally including additional PDF files as evidence (e.g.
the related job posting without pay range information).
The output is a single PDF which can be dropped into WA L&I's secure file
upload.
Prerequisites
epoa-tools depends on pdftk for filling out forms and joining pages.
On Debian / Ubuntu, install with:
sudo apt install pdftk-java
Installation
epoa-tools is available on PyPI:
pip install epoa-tools
Usage
Save a PDF file with evidence of the violation (e.g. job ad or recruiter email).
Browsers can print or save web pages as PDFs.
Then, use epoa-job-ad to complete the complaint form, attaching your evidence
file:
epoa-job-ad \
--name "John Q. Public" --email john.q.public@example.com \
"ACME Anti-Pay Ranges, Inc." \
saved_job_ad.pdf
To file anonymously, omit the --name argument. The complainant name on the
form will be listed as Anonymous and the signature line will contain
Anonymous (your.email.address@example.com):
epoa-job-ad \
--email anon.e.mouse@example.com \
"ACME Anti-Pay Ranges, Inc." \
saved_job_ad.pdf
Optionally include additional information text about your complaint with the
-i / --addinfo / --additional-information option:
epoa-job-ad \
--email anon.e.mouse@example.com \
"ACME Anti-Pay Ranges, Inc." \
saved_job_ad.pdf \
-i "This job ad is public, contains specific job requirements for a job in WA, but lists no pay range"
Word(s) can be redacted from evidence file attachments on a best effort basis:
epoa-job-ad \
--email anon.e.mouse@example.com \
"ACME Anti-Pay Ranges, Inc." \
saved_job_ad.pdf \
-r remove_this_word -r also_remove_this_word
Each of these examples creates a file such as
john-q-public-acme-anti-pay-ranges-inc-20230101-pay-transparency-complaint.pdf
which can then be uploaded to WA L&I.
