2022 has been an eventful year for New York employers, as the State and City have instituted a variety of new employment laws. Top of mind are New York City’s Salary Transparency Act and New York City’s sweeping regulation of automated employment decision tools.
Governor Kathy Hochul today signed legislation (S.9427-A/A.10477) establishing a statewide pay transparency law in New York State, requiring employers to list salary ranges for all advertised jobs and promotions.
The governor's office said the law requires employers to list salary ranges for all advertised jobs and promotions and will level the playing field for all workers.
In anticipation of its Jan. 1, 2023, effective date, the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries issued interpretive guidance concerning the amended Washington Equal Pay and Opportunities Act. The act mandates disclosure of compensation ranges in job postings.
