Washington Labor Law Poster Updates

All businesses within the State of Washington must display the new Paid Time Off and Your Rights as a Worker notices along with other state-mandated posting requirements where they are sufficiently accessible and viewable to all employees. This change has been reflected in our Washington & 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.

Order the Washington Labor Law Poster to immediately include this required update.
