Salary transparency laws are a relatively new phenomenon in the US—until Colorado enacted the 2021 Equal Pay for Equal Work Act, no US jurisdictions required businesses to disclose pay information to employees or the public.
Since 2021, eight additional states and multiple jurisdictions have passed similar laws. An increasing number of legislators and policy groups have also called for additional action, identifying wage secrecy as a contributor to both the gender pay gap and wage gaps affecting people of color—and citing a growing body of research showing that salary transparency can increase pay equity.
What state is home to over two-thirds of Fortune 500 companies, half of US publicly traded companies, and the beachside amusement park Funland? The answer, of course, is Delaware.

As a result, most startups also choose to incorporate in Delaware.
