Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the labor law, in relation to requiring employers and third-party websites, job boards and recruitment platforms to remove inactive job postings within a certain timeframe

AI Summary

This bill requires employers to remove job postings within fourteen days after the position is no longer actively available, which includes scenarios such as the job being filled, the position being eliminated, or the posting being published by mistake. Employers must notify third-party websites, job boards, and recruitment platforms within seven days of a job posting becoming inactive, and these platforms must then remove the posting within seven days of receiving notice. The bill provides exceptions for positions with multiple vacancies, roles with rolling or continuous recruitment (if clearly disclosed), and postings required by law or collective bargaining agreements. The Commissioner of Labor is granted enforcement authority, with the power to issue orders for posting removal, cease-and-desist orders, and administrative fines of at least $1,000 per violation. The Commissioner is also authorized to develop rules and regulations to implement these requirements, with the goal of preventing job seekers from applying to positions that are no longer available and improving transparency in job recruitment processes.
