The landscape of pay transparency is changing rapidly. Over the past five years, a wave of new state and local pay transparency and reporting laws has swept across the United States, with major new requirements taking effect in 2025 in states like Illinois, Minnesota, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Vermont. These laws require employers to disclose salary ranges and benefits in job postings, provide pay data to employees and applicants, and submit detailed wage reports—each with its own set of rules and penalties for non-compliance.
Staying compliant is no longer optional—it’s essential for protecting your organization’s reputation, attracting top talent, and avoiding costly fines.
