Client Alert: New York City Bans All Inquiries Regarding Salary Histories of Job Applicants
New York City has joined other states and cities across the country – including Massachusetts and Philadelphia – in banning employers from inquiring about a job candidate’s salary history. Per legislation signed on May 4, 2017 by New York City Mayor Bill DeBlasio, effective November 1, 2017, all employers in New York City, both public and private and regardless of size, may no longer:
(1) inquire about the salary history of an applicant for employment; or
(2) rely on the salary history of an applicant in determining that applicant’s salary at any stage in the employment process, unless the applicant “unprompted” and “willingly” discloses his or her prior salary information.Click here to read the alert.
