New York City Salary Transparency Law Takes Effect Today

Covers NYC employers with at least four employees or nationwide employers with at least one employee working in the city

Today, November 1, 2022, all New York City-based employers with at least four employees or domestic workers or nationwide employers with at least one employee working in the City, must abide by the New York City Salary Transparency Law.

Covered employers must include base salary information on all job advertisements. Employers may provide either a fixed amount such as $30 an hour or a minimum and maximum such as $40,000 to $50,000. The law, unlike Colorado, does not require the description of benefits, bonuses, commissions, or other compensation.
