Labor Law Updates

Workplace postings inform employees of their legal rights and responsibilities under federal, state and local regulations. Employee notices also inform employees of their legal rights and responsibilities under federal, state and local regulations.

For most employers, grasping the depth and breadth of workplace postings is challenging. Just when you think you have a handle on the complexities, a law or regulation changes — or a new requirement emerges, such as industry-specific labor law posters. 

With all the labor law issues you must navigate as an employer, you may wonder if workplace poster compliance is that big a deal. Who’s even checking if you’re displaying these postings?

Whether you have two employees, 200 or 200,000, one federal requirement is perfectly clear: You must — absolutely must — display labor law posters in the workplace.  Failure to comply could lead to costly fines, which could severely impact the ongoing viability of smaller businesses.

As a conscientious employer, you’re already aware of the federal, state and local labor law postings you must display to maintain compliance. But if your company does business with the federal government, did you know you’re responsible for federal contractor poster requirements that go beyond these core postings?
