New York Pay Transparency Laws — What They Mean for Employers

New York State will join the growing list of states enacting pay transparency laws. Effective September 17, 2023, New York will begin enforcing additional requirements on employers regarding disclosing compensation or compensation ranges in job postings.

The law applies to employers in New York with four or more employees, and requires that covered employers, employment agencies and agents disclose compensation or salary ranges in job postings, promotions or transfer opportunities.

2. Be Prepared
