Proposed Bill No. 5243, introduced by Representative Morrin Bello of the 28th District, seeks to amend chapter 557 of the general statutes. The bill mandates that employers disclose salary ranges in their job postings. This legislative change is aimed at promoting transparency in the hiring process by ensuring that potential applicants are aware of the salary range for a position before applying.

The purpose of the bill is to require employers to provide salary range information in all job postings. This would potentially help job seekers make more informed decisions about whether to pursue a position and could also contribute to addressing issues related to wage inequality and negotiation disparities. The bill has been referred to the Committee on Labor and Public Employees for consideration.
