The new law doesn't mandate pay equity; just some measure of transparency.
There's no reason a company needs to adopt that kind of a system ("raises only via promotion") just because expected salaries now have to be posted along with job listings.
- closeparen 5y agoFrom what I can tell, pay transparency (“a company wide email with the salaries of everybody”) is considered good because it’s a lever towards pay equity. That people doing ostensibly the same work are paid differently is a dirty secret; sunlight will force the bosses to fix it. I can see the attraction in that idea! But when people aren’t actually, in their hearts, quite that committed to solidarity, their ambitions and inequalities find other, costlier ways of expressing themselves.
