Labor Law Updates

It’s one thing to keep up with federal-level employment laws and related postings … it’s quite another when you drill down to the state, county and city level. While the federal requirements are limited to a handful of postings, mandatory postings in certain states can climb into the double digits. Depending on the states in which you operate and the areas of legislative activity, you’re looking at a much more complex compliance situation.

While it’s true that minimum wage laws typically change only once a year, many other posting changes can occur from month to month. And if you miss any of them — or mistakenly think you’ll cover your bases with a first-of-the-year refresh — you could fall out of compliance. Learn what it takes to ensure complete posting coverage from Day 1 to Day 365. 

The emergence of new COVID-related laws during the pandemic has led to a concerning spike in employment violations and lawsuits. Take a closer look at the claims that are coming to the forefront, and learn what steps to take to avoid similar legal issues with your business.

A steady rise in state and local labor laws demand careful attention by employers. These laws cover a range of topics — from paid sick leave and natural hair discrimination to salary history and predictable scheduling. Know whether your state, county or city is affected, so you can adequately protect your workers and maintain compliance with the rules and any related posting requirements.

Wage theft is an all-too-common complaint among employees, which can lead to costly lawsuits. Learn the key requirements under the FLSA and the proper measures for avoiding complications.
