New York Moves to Crack Down on ‘Ghost Job’ Postings
Quoted, SHRM
Jack Blum discusses the potentially significant financial consequences of New York's proposed "ghost job" posting legislation, noting that penalties could quickly multiply when noncompliant job listings appear across multiple hiring platforms. He explains that employers may face separate fines for the same posting on their own websites and third-party job boards, with penalties escalating if violations are not corrected promptly. Blum encourages employers to closely monitor where their job postings appear and coordinate with third-party recruiting platforms to minimize compliance risks if the legislation becomes law.
