To require employers to be transparent about pay and health care costs in job postings. Specifically, postings must show the starting salary range, describe benefits, and indicate whether a health plan option meets cost-sharing limits.

In Minnesota Statutes 2024 section 181.173 subdivision 2 (Salary ranges in job postings required):
- For every job opening, the posting must include:
- the starting salary range, and
- a general description of all benefits and other compensation (including health and retirement benefits),
- and whether the applicant will be offered a health plan option that complies with the cost-sharing limits under section 62Q.481 subdivision 1.
If an employer does not plan to offer a salary range for a position, the posting must list a fixed pay rate.
A salary range may not be open-ended.

Adds explicit requirements to disclose compensation and benefits, including health plan cost-sharing information, in each job posting.
Establishes that if no range is offered, a fixed pay rate must be shown.
Prohibits open-ended salary ranges in job postings.

Job seekers will see upfront how much they could earn and what benefits are available, including the cost of health care.
Employers must prepare postings that clearly state salary, benefits, and health plan cost-sharing details.
Could influence how salaries and benefits are communicated during hiring.
