How Transparent Pay reads a hiring range

We collect candidate-facing pay disclosures from hiring processes: company, role, market, job family, seniority, Verified Pay Floor, optional ceiling, currency, Pay Period, Source Type, Timing of Disclosure and Date Bucket.

We do not publish raw documents, names, email addresses, recruiter details, internal job IDs or exact dates when a broader bucket is safer.

Verified Pay Floor is the lower bound of the salary range disclosed to a candidate during hiring. It is the headline number because it shows the minimum the company put forward.

Reported Range is the full range disclosed by the company. The upper end provides context, but it is not treated as the headline.

Range Width is calculated as ceiling minus floor, divided by floor, then shown as a percentage. When there is no usable ceiling, the record can be labeled Minimum only.

Range washing describes a range so wide that it may be less useful to candidates. Ranges 81% or wider are labeled Range washing.

• We do not publish raw documents.
• We do not treat the upper end of a range as the headline.
• We do not publish recruiter details, names, emails or internal job IDs.
• We do not present unverified claims as verified data.

Verification Status explains what supports a record: Candidate reported, Verified document, Multiple sources, Public job ad or Company confirmed. Higher verification does not mean private evidence becomes public.

A record may be suppressed when the details are too identifying, too vague, disputed in a factual way or not useful enough for candidates. Suppression keeps the public ledger cleaner while moderation continues.

Companies can report factual errors. They can add context, but they cannot pay to remove verified public records. The useful response is specific: company name, role, market, Date Bucket and the field they believe is wrong.
