Require that the job they were /brought/ here for:

* last at least a year

* pay at least 150% of median market rate

* have been open and unfulfilled with at least 10 who are interviewed AND report on their desired compensation for the role

* Eliminated non-hourly work* ('Salaried' would be a contract to buy between X and Y hours of work per year, with limits of hours per day/week etc.)



Report on desired compensation? Are you serious? What if 2 folks come in and say they want $300k based on their current salaries? What will you do then? You may argue that it is the market salary then but if I were an employer, I wouldn't even invite Google/FB folks for the interview but only inexperienced folks - to game the desired salary requirement.

This is why this requires a more thoughtful approach..


Monetary compensation data, of course, would be for the /field/ and collected via the tax infrastructure. Median for /that type of work/ not based on those interviewed. The reason for having the interviewees report back is to check on if the expectations for the job match the description for the job.


Yea, lets cripple thriving american tech industry with bureaucratic/nonsensical rules that you spent 10 mins coming up with.


Enforcement would be the bigger issue.
