Employment laws can change rapidly, often without widespread media coverage. It’s crucial to stay informed about legal changes and posting requirements to ensure your business remains compliant.
Mandatory Workplace Posters
Employers are required to display specific notices in prominent locations where employees are likely to see them. These posters cover important topics such as:
- Federal and state minimum wages
- Occupational safety and health regulations
Consequences of Non-Compliance
Failing to comply with posting requirements can result in significant fines, ranging from $500 to $10,000 per offense.
Where to Obtain Posters
You have several options to obtain the necessary posters:
- Download from state and federal websites
- Order Laminated Posters from reputable vendors like the SHRM Store, JJ Keller, or your payroll company
- Free Posters from State and U.S. Department of Labor offices. Note: These must be printed individually
Many poster vendors also offer services to notify you of legal updates and when new posters are needed. Stay compliant and avoid costly fines by ensuring your workplace is up-to-date with the latest employment law posters.
