The Board has not forbidden the use of salary ranges by employers in job offers. However, where the range dips below the established prevailing wage, the offer violates the regulations.

The employer failed to offer the prevailing wage where the determined prevailing wage was $2,916 per month and the employer offered between $2,300 and $2,950 per month. While the prevailing wage was within the range of the employer's offer, the employer's offer suggested that it might pay qualified applicants less than the prevailing wage.
