The Colorado General Assembly recently passed into legislation Senate Bill 19-085, the Equal Pay for Equal Work Act, which aims to strengthen the state’s pay equality requirements, prohibit employers from seeking salary history from job applicants and require employers to post internal job openings and list salary ranges on all postings. The bill prohibits Colorado employers from discriminating on the basis of sex by paying employees of different sexes differently for substantially similar work based on the composite of skill, although certain exceptions do apply.
