Bill Summary
AN ACT Relating to strengthening pay transparency requirements; 2 and amending RCW 49.58.110. 3
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law, RCW 49.58.110, to strengthen pay transparency requirements for employers. It requires employers with 15 or more employees to disclose the wage scale or salary range and a general description of benefits and other compensation in each job posting. The bill also allows employees offered an internal transfer or promotion to request the wage scale or salary range for the new position. Additionally, the bill provides remedies for job applicants or employees who experience violations of these requirements, but also allows employers to correct any non-compliant postings within 10 business days without facing penalties.
