Illinois law requires private businesses with 100 or more employees in the State of Illinois to apply to obtain an Equal Pay Registration Certificate (EPRC) by providing certain pay, demographic, and other data to the Illinois Department of Labor (IDOL) by March 24, 2024, and to recertify every two years after the first submission. For more information, see https://labor.illinois.gov/laws-rules/conmed/eprc-faqs.html.
Important: Employers are ultimately responsible for ensuring and certifying the accuracy of the data that is provided to the IDOL. As such, you are encouraged to exercise due diligence and to conduct a review of the data in the report that is submitted. If errors or discrepancies are discovered, appropriate revisions might be necessary.
Before You Begin: The functionality for generating an Illinois pay data report in Dayforce uses data from the Payroll module. The report derives annual salary from box 5 of committed W-2 forms in the Year End feature, and hours worked from a payroll earning grouping that you specify.
