The Anti-Racism, Equity and Justice (AREJ) Organizing Team invites you to our next event this January 11th at noon via Zoom!
We are honored to have Sharon Parkinson come speak with the group about salary transparency, a topic that is important for all of us whether we work in higher education at Vassar or for non-profit or private businesses in the Hudson Valley. Please see the following readings that can provide you with some background information.
Vu Le is the former Executive Director of Rainier Valley Corps, a non-profit organization in Seattle that promotes social justice by developing leaders of color, strengthens organizations led by communities of color, and fosters collaboration between diverse communities.
Blog posts written by Vu Le:
- Not showing the salary range in job postings is archaic and inequitable. So why do we keep doing it?
- When you don’t disclose salary ranges on a job posting, a unicorn loses its wings
Sharon Parkinson will also talk about the new salary disclosure bill that was approved by the New York City Council:
