Why Many Remote Job Postings Now Exclude One State
2021-06-20
Unintended consequences strike again.
[Foundation for Economic Education] The pandemic has undoubtedly hastened the shift to remote work.

Many workers and companies have now embraced remote work in previously office-based positions, and this is continuing even as the economy reopens and new jobs are posted.

Many new remote positions are being posted advertising that applicants can live anywhere in the US—except Colorado.

Here’s why.

“A new Colorado law… requires companies with even a few employees in the state to disclose the expected salary or pay range for each open role they advertise, including remote positions,” the Wall Street Journal reports. “The rule’s aim is to narrow gender wage gaps and provide greater pay transparency for employees.”

The result?

“To avoid having to disclose that information, though, some employers seeking remote workers nationwide are saying that those living in Colorado need not apply,” the Journal notes.

#3   Was sued 5 years running by Sacramento for non-payment of state income taxes.

An annoyance, no doubt. But did they win?

#2  Resided and worked in income tax free Nevada for a firm in California. Was sued 5 years running by Sacramento for non-payment of state income taxes.

New remote workers may be having similar problems.

#1  ColoradoExcluded.com catalogs postings and reports that at least 39 companies are actively discouraging Colorado residents from applying due to onerous regulations placed by the Democrats running Colorado, which were enacted in the name of "equity".

Sucks to be you, Colorado. Don't vote for Democrats, you always end up paying for thier mistakes.
