Help wanted, work from anywhere ... except if you're located in Colorado

"This position may be done in NYC or Remote (but not in CO due to local CO job posting requirements)," the online post said.

Other employers running scared Many other firms have included similar language in their job ads.

Alcohol e-commerce platform Drizly is also looking for a remote Senior Software Engineer, anywhere except Colorado. "Please note: this role can be performed remotely anywhere in the United States with the exception of Colorado,"

Legal experts anticipated that the Equal Pay for Equal Work Act would prompt employers to find workarounds to avoid complying with the law.

Wendy Mussell, an attorney with Levy Vinick Burrell Hyams LLP, told The Register in a phone interview that these sorts of laws are being passed in various states in an attempt to address pay equity issues.

Just another reminder that Colorado has idiots in charge. Every other state in the union managed to not hurt job hunters in this way and still survive somehow.

1 out of 50, it’s not easy to screw up that bad.

I’m not seeing the problem except from Indian recruiting scammers.

It used to be that job postings provided pay ranges. They decided to get away from that when Indian firms illegally were recruiting directly for cheap Indians.

Colorado law requires posting the salary range to prevent the illegal recruitment of illegal cheap foreign labor.

Denver & Colorado Springs on Colorado’s front range are some of the hottest real estate markets in the U.S.. I live in western Colorado 240 miles west of Denver … home valuations where I live are going off the charts … reason ... front range types are selling their homes at a premium & moving to our area. Sort of the domino effect … nice, but conservative western Colorado is not happy that front range Boulder liberals are contaminating our region. Not to mention Californians that have crapped all over their nest and are now moving on to areas they can desecrate.

Boulder people aren’t many of the ones moving to far western Colorado. They like it there. Good people are moving west though, to escape the Front Range insanity. We left in 2009. We’re your neighbors, given your description.

We may be coming over from Park county. If so, we’ll help hold the line.
