Hi,

all those things about cost of living are true, so providing the pay range would give potential applicants one important piece of information. They would still need to do some research into cost of living, but surely that's more helpful than NOT providing the information.

While it would be a nice idea, the cost of living differences across the country are rather large. Thus, advertising the pay range can be deceiving.

 

I looked at moving from Fort Wayne to Chicago about 10 years ago. I even talked with realtors. These cities are only 4hrs apart.

 

At the time, Chicago was advertised as 30% higher cost of living. Found out that to maintain the same house/yard size, I would have had to increase my commute time from 40minutes to 2hrs each way. To keep my commute the same, I would have had to purchase a home half the size and at double the value. So, in practice it wasn't a 30% delta. The very enticing higher pay actually fell short of what was needed to maintain my standard of living.

 

On the flip side, the pay for a job posted in a low cost of living area can be perceived as laughable. I mean, at first glance, would anyone consider a 30% pay cut to move?

 

Thank you,

Hi All,

As a listserv, can we institute a policy that salary ranges must be provided if a job is to be shared? I know ACS has a salary calculator, but these postings can provide chemical safety professionals with some valuable information for their current job or future employment.
