The start of a new year is a crucial time for businesses to examine policies, streamline operations, and set strategic goals. It’s also an ideal time to make sure your labor law posters are up to date and reflect any changes to laws that recently took effect. In 2024 alone, over 120 updates to employment and labor laws took effect, underscoring the importance of maintaining current posters.
Why Labor Law Poster Updates Matter
Labor law posters summarize important state and federal laws that directly affect your employees. Staying compliant with labor law posters and making sure your employees have access to the most updated versions helps to foster a workplace that prioritizes transparency and employee rights.
Typically, new labor laws go into effect on January 1st, making the beginning of the year a good time to check your posters and make sure you are displaying the most updated version. Common changes to laws include:
- Minimum Wage Updates: Many states will raise their minimum wage, necessitating updated posters.
- Anti-Discrimination Laws: Additional protections for employees are often updated on a state level and across various municipalities.
- Paid Leave Laws: States often add or update their paid leave laws annually to include changes for parental leave, medical leave, or caregiver leave.
- Health and Safety Regulations: Updates to OSHA requirements and state-specific safety protocols will need to be reflected in your posters.
- Unemployment Insurance: These notices provide information about eligibility for unemployment insurance benefits and how to file a claim.
These updates are legally mandated, and failing to display accurate posters can lead to fines, penalties, and increased legal risk. Depending on your workforce, you may also need different language versions to accommodate employees whose primary language is not English.
