Is 6 months enough? Can't spots get filled between that time?

6 months is not compliant. Employees have to be made aware of the posting on the same calendar day the job is posted. For jobs that are in constant demand, the company has to either send a daily email or have some kind of banner on its corporate intranet.
There is also no geographic restriction so if a company has any offshore service centers, it would need to post any promotional jobs to its Colorado employees as well.

Amazing, they have to notify about jobs in Thailand to Colorado employees?
Love it.

We're talking about a spreadsheet that is posted to an intranet. If someone in Colorado wants to apply for a Thailand based job and is willing to relocate for the position, then why shouldn't they know about it.
Of course, Thai employers can still discriminate on the basis of gender, sex, religion and a bunch of other things that Colorado employers can't.
And any company operating in Thailand has a local Thai company established, which would be the actual employer for the local employees. So the Colorado law would not apply.

Why not? When I worked at BT they did - a nice one or two year posting abroad on full ride expat status looks good on the CV.

All over the world, this was in Kuala Lumpur I did some rereading up on the country and decided to pass, I would have had to cut my hair short for one.
One of my co-workers did this but his asthma could not stand the humidity and he had to come back.

Our promotions happen every 6 months, so position appear and are filled on that cycle.
There is also an internal jobs portal where you can search whatever you want
