Context: Colorado’s Equal Pay Act requires jobs ads to list a salary range [1], which companies generally don't want to do. Excluding CO residents is one way companies are avoiding the law. [1] https://www.colorado.edu/hr/colorados-equal-pay-equal-work-a...
Edit: someone else pointed out that Accenture does this in one of their listings:
"For the state of Colorado only, the range of starting pay for this role is $58,700 - $94,1999" https://www.accenture.com/us-en/careers/jobdetails?id=964186...
Here we see there's even a benefit: Accenture will save time interviewing people who don't want to work for these horrible low wages.
Oh, neat. Hi everyone. I made this website a few months ago. If there are questions or suggestions, happy to answer them. The website was covered in the wallstreet journal and a few other places: https://www.wsj.com/articles/many-companies-want-remote-work... Definitely overkill for the website itself but I also built it as a learning opportunity so it's a react frontend with Tailwindcss, Golang + gRPC gateway, hoste…
> As required by the Colorado Equal Pay Transparency Act, Accenture provides a reasonable range of minimum compensation for roles that may be hired in Colorado. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific office location. For the state of Colorado only, the range of starting pay for this role is {$215,000 - $324,999 } and information on benefits offered is here.
How are you generating this list? The first link I clicked on showed the exact opposite of excluding Colorado hiring due to the law. Are these listings compiled by searching for generic terms like “Colorado”? Is anyone verifying them?

>My guess is it has less to do with laziness and more to do with the financial cost of opening yourself up to lawsuits if you can't prove the wage difference isn't due to sexual discrimination. Why would they not be equally open to that risk right now? I am not seeing any special connection between publicly listing a pay range and an applicant's gender.
Because the jobs aren't open to CO residents. https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/sb19-085 Here's the bill's summary: >Wage discrimination based on sex - complaints - civil action - exceptions to prohibitions against wage differentials - prohibited acts of employer - employment announcements required - enforcement - rules. The act removes the authority of the director of the division of labor standards and statistics in t…

This is a great list of companies that I will avoid applying for. I don’t live in Colorado, but there’s something kind of I don’t know, petulant? Childish? Willfully insulting? to the phrase “ Remote work location is flexible if approved by the Company, except that position can not be performed remotely from Colorado.” I think what really sticks in my craw about that statement is that it’s a bold-faced lie. If a comp…
From the signed law: "(2) AN EMPLOYER SHALL DISCLOSE IN EACH POSTING FOR EACH JOB OPENING THE HOURLY OR SALARY COMPENSATION, OR A RANGE OF THE HOURLY OR SALARY COMPENSATION, AND A GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ALL OF THE BENEFITS AND OTHER COMPENSATION TO BE OFFERED TO THE HIRED APPLICANT. " Nowhere in the document do they define the term "range". If an employer wants to discriminate, couldn't they just give a wide range? h…

Salary ranges are typically pretty wide though so I'm not sure how much secret info this will leak.
The advertised minimum pay is what matters, as employers will have to increase the minimum pay to attract more and/or quality job applicants.
Because if it's a theoretical minimum, I don't care about it; I want to know what the maximum is. If it's an actual minimum, I also don't care about it, but the person earning that might.
Accenture is listed, but when I went to the listing, it had a CO disclaimer and listed the range. It was a massive range but a range nonetheless.
