Where I live permanent employees are protected, so the probability of being legally fired for disclosing my salary is 0, and the probability of illegally being fired should be very close to 0. However, the probability of my salary going up is also very close to 0. In fact, the probability of my salary decreasing is arguably higher than the probability of my salary increasing, since bonuses vary and are decided semi-arbitrarily. :-)

In any case I know a much more effective way to increase my salary: getting a green card and moving to the US. The flipside is that my American wife would have a hard time finding a good job in her field in the US.
