Employers with 15 or more employees must include pay scale information in all job postings, advertisements, solicitations, or other communications offering employment or seeking applicants

"Pay scale" is defined as the salary or hourly wage range the employer reasonably expects to pay for the position, and must be included directly in the job posting rather than referenced at another location

Employers using third parties to post job openings must either include pay scale information themselves or require the third party to do so

Violations carry civil penalties ranging from $100 to $10,000 per violation, enforced by the Director of the Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing

Employers must receive written notice before penalties are imposed and may contest determinations through judicial review under Chapter 17A; collected penalties are deposited into the state general fund
