Got asked current salary, when I'm in CA and that is no longer legal. How can I report? (kbin.social)

Exactly what the title says. I was asked my current base salary, not what I'm looking for. And when I refused they tried to pressure me into answering. I don't want them doing this to other people who don't know it's illegal.

I did try googling but didn't see any answers aside from "sue them". Shouldn't there be a way to report it to the labor board or something?

"what's the problem with an employer breaking the law, guys?"

"if your employer says your non-salaried job doesn't pay overtime, then questioning them will just get you fired and you'll be out of a job. Be thankful your capitalist overlord gives you anything!"
