This new law is an important next step toward closing wage gaps, especially for People of Color and women. It will also strengthen the ability of Massachusetts employers to build diverse, talented teams.
Massachusetts is now one step closer to ensuring equal pay for equal work. Pay transparency will not only make our workplaces more equitable, it will also make Massachusetts more competitive with other states.
Democratic Senate President Karen Spilka said that it's too common for women and people of color to be paid less than their coworkers nationwide, and Massachusetts is not immune.
AIM believes these important policy changes strike the right balance by promoting open and honest communication about wages while not overburdening our employers with cumbersome and time-consuming reporting requirements.
