The Pay Transparency Law and The Pay Stub and Pay Statement Law set to go in effect October 1

Two new laws, passed in the 2024 General Assembly Session, are set to go into effect October 1.

The Pay Transparency Law requires employers to provide information about compensation and benefits in their job postings. The Pay Stub and Pay Statement law requires employers to provide workers with written notice of pay, paydays, and leave benefits, and also provide a written or online pay statement each payday that includes information about hours, rates, compensation, and deductions.

Guidance concerning both of these new laws, including FAQs, templates (that employers may choose to use to satisfy their obligations), and instructions is available here,

The Maryland Department of Labor will host a webinar on September 25, 2024 at 10 a.m., providing an overview of both laws as well as a Q&A session.
