Two new laws, passed in the 2024 General Assembly Session are set to go into effect October 1, 2024.
- 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 from the Maryland Department of Labor (MDOL) concerning both of these new laws, including FAQs, templates (that employers may use to satisfy their obligations), and instructions is available HERE.
