New York City has enacted a pay transparency law which requires employers to disclose salary ranges in job postings beginning on May 15, 2022.
The pay transparency law requires all NYC employers with four or more employees in New York State (at least one of whom is in NYC) to include the minimum and maximum salary range in all advertisements for jobs, promotions, and transfers that the employer believes in good faith it would pay at the time of the posting.[1]
“Good faith” means the salary range the employer honestly believes at the time they are listing the job advertisement that they are willing to pay the successful job applicant(s).[2]
It is considered an “unlawful discriminatory practice” for a covered employer or its agent to advertise a job, promotion, or transfer without stating the salary range for such position.[3] Employers must include both a minimum and a maximum salary; the range cannot be open ended.[4] For example, “$15 per hour and up” or “maximum $50,000 per year” would not be consistent with the new requirements.
