New Hampshire’s Law Against Discrimination provides state-level protection closely aligned with federal doctrine on most issues. The state’s proximity to Boston’s technology and biotech ecosystem shapes compensation profiles in the Seacoast region.
Cross-state labor market
Many senior-professional plaintiffs employed in New Hampshire live in Massachusetts or work regularly in the Boston metro. Mitigation analysis treats the bi-state labor market as a single economic unit where the record supports it.
Sectoral profile
Concord and southern New Hampshire support insurance, financial-services, and advanced-manufacturing employers with compensation structures that track their regional peers. The model reconstructs each component rather than applying generic occupational averages.
Worklife & discount-rate notes
New Hampshire's advanced-manufacturing, healthcare, technology, and financial-services sectors produce varied compensation. Seacoast-region technology plaintiffs face structures comparable to Boston peers; Concord-area insurance plaintiffs face regional-carrier compensation; healthcare plaintiffs face regional-system LTIPs.
