Labor Law Updates

Human trafficking involves the exploitation of individuals for labor or commercial sex through force, fraud or coercion, typically affecting vulnerable populations of women, children, migrants and marginalized communities

Keeping current with labor law posting changes is not an easy task for employers. To show you just how extensive this undertaking can be, let’s consider a fictional pizza chain. We’ll look at the typical posting requirements impacting such a business and, most important, how a labor law posting subscription service can keep them current and compliant.

Complying with federal, state and local labor law postings is a fundamental responsibility for all U.S. employers. In addition to the six mandatory federal postings, you may need to display an additional 19 state-issued posters, depending on your state. Moreover, county and city regulations introduce yet another layer of complexity, often requiring additional postings.

Think that workplace posting updates occur only once a year? It’s a common misconception, but one that can create a dangerous gap in your posting compliance. Labor law posting requirements change frequently and randomly, which means you may need to address updates more than annually.

If you rely on your workers’ comp insurance provider for labor law posters, you could be making a costly mistake. They may offer certain notices for free to their clients, but they don’t address every labor law posting requirement. This incomplete approach increases your risk of government fines and costly lawsuits.
