Not sure why these comment is being down-voted. It is not even rude. The law does seem stupid and an empty gesture. (Like NY state banning Sex offenders from playing Pokemon Go) but such laws benefit no one, add an extra layer of complexity in hiring process. Are not there any other proxies for determining a person salary ? For example you can always ask a person his/her house rent or ask for tax returns.
- emodendroket 10y agoWho the hell asks for those things in an interview? Considering how much salary negotiation advice talks about how revealing your current salary puts you at a disadvantage this doesn't seem like an awful thing to try.
- tn13 10y agoWhy do you think only employees deserve the protection from the law and not employers ? All they are asking for some information to make an informed decision.
- emodendroket 10y agoEmployers enjoy far more power in this relationship and thus need less protection. The idea that employers receive no protection from the law is bogus.
