In case anyone's curious about California's law on this:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?sectionNum=432.3.&nodeTreePath=3.1.3.3&lawCode=LAB https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySectio...
This was changed in 2019. Employers must provide a salary band, but it can be after an initial interview, and is not required in job postings.
The same code prevents employers from directly asking a candidate about their salary history, or relying on salary history to make a hiring decision.
(Employers can ask about a candidate's salary expectation, though. And the law doesn't say anything about benefits or non-salary compensation.)
- llbeansandrice 5y agoI personally think the ideal is combining WA's and CO's requirements about salary bands in job-listings and CA's law about excluding previous compensation in hiring decisions. Previous compensation matters to the employee, it's only a wage-suppression technique from the employer's side.
