An open letter to State Governors & Legislatures (Mich. only)

Ban deceptive ghost job listings harming job seekers

2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

To address unethical ghost job postings that waste applicants' time and damage company reputations, I urge you to introduce legislation banning or penalizing this deceptive practice. Companies should not be allowed to post jobs they never intend to fill, as it unfairly raises hopes and makes an already difficult job market even harder to navigate. Qualified candidates deserve clarity about legitimate openings instead of being misled. Honest hiring practices prioritizing transparency will improve the overall job search experience and build trust between employers and potential employees. Phasing out these fake listings through new regulations is crucial for protecting job seekers and encouraging ethical recruitment.
