Massachusetts has enacted a new law requiring businesses with over 25 employees to disclose salary ranges in job postings, aiming to enhance pay transparency and reduce wage gaps, particularly for women and People of Color. The legislation also ensures employees’ rights to request salary ranges when applying for jobs or promotions. Governor Maura Healey emphasized that this law will help build diverse and talented teams and aligns Massachusetts with 10 other states with similar requirements. Democratic leaders and the Associated Industries of Massachusetts support the law, noting that it promotes equitable pay without overburdening employers. Additionally, companies with more than 100 employees must share federal wage and workforce data with the state to identify and address wage disparities.
