Salary ranges . Plenty of states in the US already have this law.
Will they have ways to check companies who do "$60k-250k" kinds of ranges? I think that's the main thing the US hasn't really touched

#13At least in Norway it's already public what everyone makes. I can look up the taxable salary information about anyone (so salary after deductions but it's probably ok close). Also, even without that, salary of public employees is part of the information you can request to view. I feel discussing salaries is quite common here. At work someone made a spreadsheet everyone fills their salary into if they want, experience…
Yes, and I think where this kind of thing is useful is in job advertisements.

This would apply to ~200M workers in the EU. Seems like a big deal, even if a handful of states in the US have similar policy. The entire US labor force only has ~164M workers. Other US states will catch up, eventually.

(Texas and Florida notably do not, and likely won't for some time due to state politics; they are the second [30M] and third [22M] states by population, respectively)

Assuming I was Norwegian and for some reason was getting paid way more than my coworkers, could I format my deductions so that it looked like I was paid on par with them, but be able to recover most of the money later?

Does the salary info include investment income or income from other sources, or only salaries from corporations? If you work as a barista would your taxable information be available as well?

I guess it's technically possible but there are not that many deductions that would have a significant impact on your salary information.

#18How is this compatible with EUs relentless focus on privacy? What if I don’t want my colleagues or even people outside of my company to know how much I earn?

why would you try to do that?
