Am I Allowed To Disclose My Salary And The Existence Of Severance Package (which I Declined) In A Glassdor Review?
Location: Colorado
Hello everyone,
I was offered a severance package which included very strict clauses and decided it would be more important to post about my honest experiences on Glassdor vs letting the company buy my silence.
The confidential agreement that I've signed upon joining mentions these points, but it also says that I am allowed to discuss the terms and conditions of my employment expressly permitted by Section 7 of NLRA.
Does it mean that I can include MY salary information in that review? I'm confused by point (c) in that initial agreement as I'm technically considered an employee myself but I guess it talks more about other people vs myself?
Additionally, am I allowed to mention that I was offered a severance agreement which I declined in order to post this review? - does it violate the confidentiality clause, or is it still inline with NLRA section 7 protections?
I did try to read it but didn't find these references there, even though Gemini (I know, I know) is confident it is allowed:
1.2Confidential Information. The term “Confidential Information” means any and all confidential knowledge, data or information of Company. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to: (a) trade secrets, inventions, ideas, processes, computer source and object code, data, formulae, programs, other works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, and techniques; (b) information regarding products, services, plans for research and development, marketing and business plans, budgets, financial statements, contracts, prices, suppliers, and customers; (c) information regarding the skills and compensation of Company’s employees, contractors, and any other service providers of Company; (d) account login information and passwords for all company related email and social media accounts; (e) the existence of any business discussions, negotiations, or agreements between Company and any third party; and (f) any other non-public information that acompetitor of Company could use to the competitive disadvantage of Company.
P. S. There's also a Colorado's Equal Pay for Equal work Act that states: "It also prohibits employers from: ... (3) not allowing employees to discuss pay; (4) requiring an employee to sign a document that prohibits the employee from discussing pay; (5) retaliating against an employee for using their rights under the Equal Pay Act, including by filing a complaint with this Division; and (6) retaliating against an employee for discussing pay.
P. P. S. I was a director of a company, if that changes things.
