Pay Information in Job Postings
Effective October 29, 2025, employers with 25 or more employees in Massachusetts must include a pay range in any advertisement or job posting intended to recruit applicants for a specific role.
A “pay range” is “the annual salary range or hourly wage range that the employer reasonably and in good faith expects to pay for such a position at that time.”
Covered employers must also share a pay range:
- With an applicant upon request;
- With an employee for their current role upon request; and
- With an employee offered a promotion or transfer to a new position.
Covered employers are prohibited from retaliating against employees who seek to exercise their rights under the law.
