In principle I have no problem with being upfront about the compensation range for a position. However, making such transparency a legal requirement simply discloses that the proponents have never been involved in hiring people. In 30 years as a business owner, I hired a hundred or so people. In numerous instances some candidates were interviewed because they appeared to have “potential” rather than a proven track record or the required qualifications. Any salary offer reflected that shortfall and risk.
Since employers are pretty savvy, I suspect they will simply widen the range of their salaries to reflect the possible range of candidate’s market value given their qualifications.
I can see the next step being laws that force employers to post the salaries of all employees online for all to see.
What risk??? Been pretty customary for a 90 day tryout period...Surely someone knows if the employee is satisfactory in 3 months...
