California Labor Commissioner Lilia García-Brower has issued an open letter reminding employers of their obligations to comply with the State’s new pay transparency requirements under the California Equal Pay Act. (Labor Code. Sections 423.3 and 1197.5)
Employers with 15 or more employees must include the pay scale for a position in any job posting, and if that employer engages a third party to handle the job posting, the third party must include the pay scale in the job posting. The law applies to postings for jobs that may be filled or performed in California, either in-person or remotely.
