Many of the advocates for pay transparency regulations—the latest iteration of which hit New York City this month—argue that posting salary ranges for jobs not only helps close gender and racial pay gaps, but provides a better foundation for younger and future workers.
Turns out, younger workers don’t care about these rules as much as more established employees. At least, that’s according to a new survey from The Harris Poll that found two-thirds of Gen Z workers (ages 18 to 24) support states and cities requiring companies to include salary ranges in their job postings. A wide majority, to be sure, but far less than the more than eight out of 10 millennial, Gen X, and baby boomer workers who each said the same.
