Colorado Pay Transparency and Equity for Employers of Record
Job notices must include pay, benefits, and the expected application deadline.
The rule
Colorado Senate Bill 23-105, approved June 5, 2023, and effective January 1, 2024, requires an employer, for each job opportunity, to follow posting rules that include compensation, benefits, and the date the application window is expected to close, and to make reasonable efforts to announce who was selected.
What employers must do
When you post a Colorado job, include the pay, a general picture of the benefits, and the expected closing date. Tell current employees, within the statute's rules, who was selected. The state minimum wage still floors any range: $15.16 now, and $15.71 on January 1, 2027.
Effective dates
The posting amendments took effect January 1, 2024. The wage floor changes on January 1, 2027. This review did not confirm an employer-size exception from the bill page.
What this means for BOSS partners and associates
BOSS is often the employer of record for the associate. Wage, break, leave, posting, and tax rules usually follow the state where the associate works. Tell BOSS that state before the assignment starts. Associates should record every hour worked on the timesheet. Do not promise a pay practice, a leave bank, or a posting the statute does not require.
