Zion — Ch. 46 Human Relations § 46-29
Equal pay
Operative Text
All persons who perform work on behalf of the city or are employed by the city shall be paid in accordance with the work performed and shall not be differentiated against on the basis of race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin or ancestry.
Zion's Ch. 46 Human Relations § 46-29 establishes that anyone performing work for or employed by the city must receive pay that reflects the work they do, without discrimination based on race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, or ancestry. The provision applies broadly to city workers and contractors alike. It functions as an equal-pay guarantee tied to job performance rather than personal characteristics.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Although Ch. 46 Human Relations § 46-29 is directed at the City of Zion as an employer rather than private landlords, property managers who contract with the city for services should be aware that compensation practices for workers performing city-related work fall under this provision. Compliant operators generally ensure that pay scales for any city-contracted work are based on the nature of the work performed and are free from distinctions tied to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, or ancestry. Maintaining clear, documented pay structures helps demonstrate adherence to the equal-pay standard set out in § 46-29.

Zion Ch. 46 Human Relations § 46-29 may be relevant to tenants who also work for or perform services on behalf of the city, as it guarantees that their compensation cannot be differentiated on the basis of protected characteristics such as race, sex, or religion. Individuals who believe this provision has been violated in a city employment or contracting context can generally raise the matter with the city's human relations office or a relevant municipal oversight body. Tenant-rights organizations and legal aid services can help individuals understand how § 46-29 intersects with other local and state anti-discrimination protections.
