As much as your company would like to forbid you from talking about this, Federal law says they can't.

As a manager, it's understandable why you wouldn't want your employees discussing their compensation among themselves.

Many employment agreements are individually negotiated, some managers pay their better workers more, regardless of their experience with the company, and large differentials in salary may cause morale problems.

Despite reservations about employees' tendency to share salary details, federal law expressly prohibits employers from restricting workers from discussing their salaries with one another.

Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act provides employees the right to make efforts to organize and discuss the terms of their employment, including salary and benefits packages.

While the Section 7 rights extended to employees have been reaffirmed by numerous court decisions according to the Texas Workforce Commission, employers may limit their employees from discussing their salaries during times when they should be working.
