多虧2項新法 許多雇主很快將得在求才廣告上揭露薪資
【摘要2022-11-04 .五.自由】◎張沛元
Job seekers will start to get a much
better grasp on what many employers are willing to pay – and so will a company’s
existing employees.
（美國的）求職者將開始更清楚知道雇主願意付多少薪水－－該公司現有員工亦然。
While there is already a patchwork of
state and local laws aimed at improving pay transparency, many companies still
do not advertise what they pay up front. But two new laws that will soon take
effect may have the biggest impact yet on employers and job seekers across the
country.
儘管現有旨在改善薪資透明度的各種州級與地方法律，許多公司仍不願在徵才廣告上坦率寫出願意支付多少薪水。但即將生效的2項新法，或許會對全美國的雇主與求職者造成迄今最大的影響。
On November 1, New York City will require
employers that have four or more people on the payroll – with at least one of
them working in the city – to provide a “good faith” pay range listing the
minimum and maximum base salary or hourly wage in all job advertisements.
紐約市在11月1日將要求有至少4名支薪員工－－其中至少一人任職於紐約市－－的雇主，在所有求才廣告上提供「真誠」的薪資範疇，列出最低與最高的基礎薪資或時薪。

Last Sunday, Nate was seeking a space for
his car in a parking lot. Unfortunately, he found out that the parking lot was
already full. Since Nate was running late for an appointment, he decided not to
find another place to park. Instead, Nate pulled over and parked his car on the
side of the road with a red line. He ignored the sign that said “ No temporary
parking ” and left.
上星期天，奈特在停車場裡替他的車找停車位。不幸地，他發現停車場已經停滿了。因為奈特的約快遲到了，他決定不另外找地方停車。奈特反而駛到路旁將車子停在畫有紅線的路邊。他忽視了寫著「禁止臨時停車」的告示並離開了。
