SALARY TRANSPARENCY
IT'S THE LAW. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
As of January 1, 2025, salary transparency is the law in Illinois. Here’s what you need to know:
- Companies and organizations with at least 15 employees MUST include information about pay range, expected benefits, and other compensation they will offer for any job opportunity they post.
- It also requires those employers to let their current employees know when they are looking for external candidates for a position that could be an opportunity for promotion, so that current employees can apply.
How to File a Complaint:
Do you know of an employer who’s not abiding by this law? Do you feel like your rights have been violated? You can file a complaint with the Illinois Department of Labor.
