compliance

Labor law posters are required state and federal notices that employers with at least one employee must prominently display in a common area accessible to all employees. Failure to post the correct notices can lead to fines, penalties, and potential legal action.

Labor law posters may need to be updated several times throughout the year. Most posters have 2-3 mandatory changes that occur at different times throughout the year. It is standard practice to update your posters at the beginning of each year and monitor for updates throughout the year.

Employers must physically post labor law posters in an area that is frequently visited by employees. Physical posting is required by law for both state and federal posters. Examples can include but are not limited to: bulletin board in the breakroom, above a time clock, or in the cafeteria or lunchroom.

Employers are required to inform all employees, regardless of their work location, about their rights under state and federal employment laws. For remote employees, this requirement can be met in one of two ways: either by providing each remote employee with a physical copy of the labor law poster or by making electronic versions of the posters accessible through a company intranet. For telecommuters who visit the office regularly, displaying labor law posters in a visible location at the workplace fulfills the compliance obligation.
