Maryland employers need to know of their new statutory requirement to collect workforce data that previously was
not required. Currently, Maryland employers are required under §3-305 of the Labor and Employer Article subtitled
?Equal Pay for Equal Work,? to maintain records related to the wages of their employees, and their employees? job
