Lizz Acee, partner, was quoted in the New Haven Biz article “Transparent Wages: How to Avoid Running Afoul of CT’s New Salary Disclosure Law” about the confusing nature of Connecticut’s wage disclosure law and the steps employers are taking to address it.

Wage range information must also be provided when an employee is hired, their position changes, or if the employee requests it.
To be compliant with the law, Lizz said that Barclay Damon recommends a pay equity audit and advises employers to have formal job descriptions in place for their workers, along with salary ranges for each job.
