The New York state legislature has passed and sent to Governor Kathy Hochul for her expected signature a bill that will require covered state employers to include salary and other information in their job postings. Once signed into law, Senate Bill 9427 is scheduled to go into effect in 270 days, likely sometime early next year.
The New York bill is the latest in a fast-growing trend among states and localities to enact legislation requiring covered employers to include salary and other information in job postings. The bill delegates implementing authority to the NY Department of Labor (NYDOL), meaning that many details about how it will work in practice will not be known until those rules are issued.
