Labor Law Updates

You’re keeping current with all labor law postings impacting your business, so you’re fully compliant, right? Not necessarily. Beyond workplace postings, U.S. employers must also distribute notifications directly to employees under specific circumstances.

The recent enactment of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) marks a significant shift in the regulatory landscape for employers. This newly passed legislation poses fresh responsibilities and challenges for businesses across the U.S. as it aims to ensure fair treatment and support for pregnant workers.

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 operate across many jurisdictions, this flurry of separate minimum wage laws creates a unique compliance challenge. Yet it’s essential to keep up with them because when federal, state and local minimum wage laws differ, you’re legally required to pay the most generous rate to your hourly, nonexempt workers.

It's a misconception that could cost you: There’s no “one-stop-shop” to obtain every mandatory workplace posting for free. To meet the latest federal, state and local posting requirements, you need to look beyond workers’ comp insurance providers and government agencies.
