AI-generated

HJR 17-1022, also known as the "Equal Pay Day" bill in Colorado, aims to address wage gaps by prohibiting employers from asking about a job applicant's salary history. This helps prevent past inequalities from influencing current and future salaries. The bill applies to all employees and job seekers within Colorado. Since it has been signed into law, it is now enforceable, meaning employers must comply with the new rules regarding salary inquiries during the hiring process.
