The Proliferation of Local Pay Transparency Laws

The New York City Human Rights Law (“NYCHRL”), which applies to employers with four or more employees (or one or more domestic workers) has been amended to require employers to state “the minimum and maximum salary” in each “advertisement” for a “job, promotion or transfer opportunity.” 

• When establishing the minimum and maximum salary for a position, an employer must determine, in good faith, what it believes it would pay for the advertised job, promotion, or transfer opportunity at the time of advertisement.
