On January 1, 2018, California joined the ranks of a growing number of cities and states which now make it illegal for employers to ask job applicants about their salary history. These bills share the worthiest of goals: they seek to promote pay equity based on qualifications & experience....and in so doing, close a gender wage gap that stubbornly persists more than 50 years after President Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act in 1963.
Employer compliance with California's salary ban law - technically known as Assembly Bill 168 (AB 168) is not without its challenges. Some of the bill's language is broad and interpretation has yet to be established.
But as the saying goes, "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step"...so with that thought in mind, PhoenixHR LLC has created the free compliance guide for employers below. We have also created a free custom candidate interview evaluation form that not only can help standardize the candidate assessment process but includes a section specifically designed to help with AB 168 compliance.
