Effective October 27, 2025, Cleveland will enforce Ordinance No. 104-2025, requiring employers with 15 or more
employees to include salary ranges in job postings and prohibiting inquiries into applicants’ salary histories. The
ordinance aims to promote pay equity and prevent discrimination based on prior compensation. Employers found in
violation may face penalties up to $5,000 per offense, with the Fair Employment Wage Board overseeing enforcement
and offering a 90-day correction period before fines are applied.
