Pay Transparency Ordinance

Columbus

Summary

Columbus now requires employers to include salary ranges in job postings, so pay secrecy is out for local hiring. If you’re job hunting, you’ll see the numbers up front; if you’re hiring, you’ll need to post them. It’s a big shift for how local jobs get advertised and negotiated.

✅Who benefits

Job seekers—especially those who’ve been left guessing about pay—gain upfront salary info and stronger bargaining power.

⚠️Who could be affected

Employers, especially smaller ones, may feel the pinch from added compliance work and less room to keep salary ranges flexible.
