Questione giuridica chiave
Whether kindergarten teachers are entitled to retroactive pay equalization for discriminatory wages and for how long back
Decisione estratta
They are entitled to the wage difference retroactively for five years before the action was filed.
Motivazione estratta
The equal-pay claim is a federal individual right; absent a special rule in the Equality Act, the limitation rules of the Code of Obligations apply by analogy. Thus the claim is limited to five years before filing.
