HR Compliance Library, ¶21,018, Benchmark: Bans on salary history inquiries

摘要

Nearly half (44 percent) of employers that have implemented a ban on asking job candidates about their salaryrnhistory reported doing so to be very or extremely simple, according to a survey of 838 WorldatWork members ( 5rn). Only 1 percent found it extremely difficult, while 8 percent said it was very difficult.rnCrafting a total rewards offer without salary history information can be daunting to employers, notedrnWorldatWork, as it’s a significant shift in how many organizations traditionally construct compensation offers.rnHowever, when hiring managers and recruiters are educated and given reliable compensation data on marketrnrates and pay ranges, there is less need for a candidate’s salary history.
