In 2025, the Nevada Department of Business and Industry released a revised “Rules to be Observed by Employers” workplace poster that employers must display in their workplaces. This update includes important wage rules, specifically clarifying that tips and gratuities cannot be counted toward minimum wage obligations. Failing to meet posting requirements could result in costly fines and penalties.
What Employers Need to Know: Contents of Nevada’s “Rules to be Observed by Employers” Poster
Nevada’s employer-required poster provides important information about state labor laws, including:
- Minimum wage and overtime regulations
- Meal periods and rest breaks
- Wages and compensation due at separation
- Wage payment frequency
- Unlawful deductions from wages
- Uniform mandates
- Paid leave entitlements
- Leave related to domestic violence
Key Changes in the 2025 Poster Update
The revised poster removes outdated wage information and includes wage details about tip credits and gratuities. Notably:
- Tips or gratuities received by employees shall not be credited as being any part of or offset against the minimum wage rates.
- A link to the Nevada Annual Minimum Wage Notice is also provided.
These changes directly impact how employers calculate compensation and ensure that wage practices comply with Nevada law.

All Nevada employers are required to:
- Display the updated “Rules to be Observed by Employers” poster in an accessible area to employees on the employer’s premises.
- Post all mandatory federal and state labor law notices as specified in the new poster.
