Look Out (Here Comes Tomorrow): New Pay Transparency Requirements Effective in 2025

Job postings must include the wage or salary range and a general description of the benefits and other compensation (i.e., bonuses, stock options, or other incentives) that the employer reasonably expects in good faith to offer for the position.

The posted range must be based on the applicable pay scale, previously determined range for the position, actual range of others holding equivalent positions, or the budgeted amount for the position. If the starting pay rate is fixed, the employer can provide the starting wage or salary rate instead of a range.

In lieu of including the wage information in the posting, employers can provide a hyperlink to a publicly viewable web page that includes the wage or salary range and benefits information.

For roles paid on commission, postings must also state that the position is paid by commission, but need not describe the commission range.

For roles paid on a tipped basis, postings must also disclose that the job is tip-eligible, but need not provide information about the tip range.

Job postings must include the pay range for the position.

Employers must also provide pay range information for employees who are offered a promotion, or transfer, to a new position with different job responsibilities.

In addition, upon request, employers must provide the pay range to an employee for their own position, or to an applicant for the position.
