Governor Hochul has signed off on a brand-new law that will make it mandatory for employers to list the salary ranges for every advertised job and promotion.
The goals of this legislation are to provide workers with important information before they apply for a position and to reduce discriminatory wage-setting and hiring practices. The U.S. Department of Labor says that in 2020, women made $.83 for every $1.00 made by men. The governor believes the legislation will usher in a new era of fairness and transparency for New York's workforce.
