Report Link Colorado Bans Employer Restrictions on Individual Employees' Right to Discuss Their Salaries.
Jackson Lewis LLP - July 28, 2008
Colorado employers must eliminate any policies and amend any agreements that prohibit their employees from discussing their salaries or wages with others under the state's new Wage Transparency Act (the "Act"). While the federal National Labor Relations Act protects the rights of employees acting in concert, the Colorado law protects employees on an individual level. The Act does not apply to employers who are exempt from the NLRA. The Act, effective August 5, 2008, amends the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act to prohibit employers from taking any adverse action against an "employee or other person" who discusses the employee's wages. Furthermore, the Act prohibits making nondisclosure of wages a condition of employment.
Report Link Colorado Enacts Law Guaranteeing Employees the Right to Discuss Their Wages.
Littler Mendelson, P.C. - July 09, 2008
In April 2008, Colorado Governor Bill Ritter signed Senate Bill 122, entitled the "Wage Transparency Act" (the "Act"). The Act, which amends the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act and is effective August 5, 2008, prohibits employers from taking adverse actions against employees who discuss their wages with others. Employers often have policies prohibiting or restricting their employees from such communications. Colorado now joins only a few other states – including California, Michigan, and Illinois – in prohibiting such employer policies.
