Employers will not be able to ask about expected remuneration? The draft law has been submitted to the Assembly

The state Assembly has introduced a bill, 2025-A1289, that would prohibit employers from asking job candidates about their expected salary for a proposed job. The legislation would also prohibit refusing to hire, promote or even interview based on an employee's/candidate's salary expectations.

Since 2020, New York State has had a law that prohibits employers from asking job applicants about their previous earnings. The new bill expands that prohibition, prohibiting employers from asking job applicants about their expected salary before making an offer of employment.

The bill provides that a candidate will be able to voluntarily disclose to an employer the salary they would like to receive in a given position – e.g. for negotiation purposes – but the employer will not be able to base the final decision on their employment on this information.

The bill also imposes a new reporting obligation on employers. If the law goes into effect, they will have to inform job candidates about their employee benefits. The bill does not define exactly what “employee benefits” are, but it most likely includes health insurance, 401(k), stock purchase plans, commissions, etc.

If Gov. Kathy Hochul approves the bill before the end of the current legislative session (June 13, 2025), the proposed regulations would take effect 19 days after being signed into law.
