Frequently asked
Which states require a salary range in job postings?
As of 2026: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and Washington DC. Several of these (Colorado, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, Washington) also require a benefits/other-compensation description.
Does this apply to remote postings?
Yes — a remote posting triggers the law of every state an applicant could see it from, not just where the employer is headquartered. That's the most common way employers get caught off guard: they comply for their home state and miss the rest.
How is this different from SixFifty or a compliance guide?
SixFifty is a $250+/month enterprise suite built for HRIS-integrated legal teams and requires a sales call. Guides from Rippling, Loio, and others explain the law but don't scan an actual posting. This is a flat $19, paste-and-scan tool for a solo recruiter or small staffing agency who wants a 30-second answer before hitting publish.
Does this certify my posting is compliant?
No. 'Good faith estimate' and 'reasonable range' are judgment calls the statutes leave to the employer — this flags what's detectably missing (a range, a benefits description) and cites the exact statute, but the final call on compliance is yours or your counsel's.
What counts as a valid salary range?
A real number or range — "$140,000-$170,000/year" or "$19.50/hr". Vague language like "competitive salary" or "DOE" does not count under any of these laws, and this scanner treats it the same way regulators do: as missing.
