As Jess Salomon, the lawyer-cum-comedian puts it, “The law can be a valuable tool, but no matter what you’re doing with it on a daily basis, it can be very procedural and narrow.”

Transparency is great (not just in the workplace), but it can lead to some problems if a particular company does not have an easily understood compensation strategy. To prevent discrimination, inequity, and disputes over pay, it helps for employers to have a system of checks and balances when it comes to salary.
Pay secrecy policies, which may be written or implied, discourage or prohibit employees from talking about their pay. More often than not, pay secrecy policies are unwritten and employees just assume they are not allowed to discuss compensation. Either way, these types of policies clearly violate the NLRA.
In a nutshell, the NLRA protects most employees’ right to discuss their salary, and President Obama’s executive order applied that same right to federal employees and contractors. However, there are a few important exceptions to the rule that you should know about.
There is a common misconception among employees that you cannot discuss your pay with others. In fact, employees’ right to discuss their salary is protected by law. While employers may restrict workers from discussing their salary in front of customers or during work, they cannot prohibit employees from talking about pay on their own time.
