AI Summary
This bill amends the Equal Pay Act of 2003 to require employers with 15 or more employees to include both the "base pay scale," which is the wage or salary range for a position, and the "variable pay scale," which includes a range of bonuses, stock options, commissions, and other incentives an employer expects to offer, in all job postings. These two pay scales must be presented as separate ranges within the job posting. The bill also clarifies that the inclusion of a link to a publicly accessible webpage containing this information satisfies the posting requirement, and it outlines responsibilities for employers and third-party job posting services to ensure this information is provided.
