Alaska Occupational and Safety Law Update
- Mandatory penalties against employers of up to $14, 502 for each serious violation
- Optional penalties of up to $14,502 for any other violations
- Penalties of up to $14,502 per day possible for failure to correct violations within the proposed timeframe

Alaska Labor Law Poster Update
All businesses within the State of Alaska must display the new Safety and Health Protection on the Job notice along with other state-mandated posting requirements where it is sufficiently accessible and viewable to all employees. This change has been reflected in our Alaska & Federal Labor Law Poster and does require an immediate mandatory update. Failure to meet compliance requirements and display the updated poster could result in fines.
