Other states were not. ## The rule Three posting rules were confirmed from an official page. Illinois: employers with 15 or more employees, for a covered posting made or republished after January 1, 2025, must include the pay scale and benefits, and must tell employees within 14 days. New Jersey: effective June 1, 2025, a posting must include the wage or a range, a general description of benefits, and other compensation programs. The employee-count threshold was not on the page text opened. Colorado: effective January 1, 2024, a job opportunity notice includes compensation, benefits, and the expected application closing date, and the employer makes reasonable efforts to announce who was selected. California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Texas, and Washington each have their own articles. Their posting thresholds were not confirmed in this review. Every range still has to clear that state's minimum wage. ## What employers must do Build the posting from the state article, not from this comparison alone. Do not merge the state URLs. They stay separate so the existing links keep working. ## Effective dates Illinois applies to postings after January 1, 2025. New Jersey took effect June 1, 2025. Colorado's amendments took effect January 1, 2024. Wage floors that change on January 1, 2027 are in the state articles. ## 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. Questions?
