What Every Business Needs to Know about 2023 Labor Law Poster Compliance

January 1st is the most popular date for cities and states to make changes to their labor laws, requiring updates to their workplace posters. Typical changes to watch for are city and state minimum wages, discrimination, OSHA and sick leave laws. These labor laws have mandatory posting requirements and failure to comply could result in penalties and fines. So, making sure that your organization is compliant will reduce the risk of labor law violations.

At LaborLawCenter, we monitor anticipated changes throughout the year and make sure that we keep a close eye on forthcoming legislation and laws expected to be amended. Below is a list of the upcoming mandatory labor law additions and updates by state that we are watching for 2023.

If your business operates in any of the states shown below, you will be required to display updated labor law compliance posters by January 1, 2023. One posting is required in each office location and you will typically need to display both English and Spanish versions. Spanish labor law posters are required when you have employees who speak Spanish as their primary language.

While poster updates can (and do) come at any point throughout the year, January 1st is usually the time to check to make sure that your business is starting the year compliant. Check here to see if your business is compliant with all of the posting requirements for the states and cities in which your business operates.

What You Can Do To Ensure Your Business is Compliant

  1. Visit the state and federal Department of Labor sites for the locations in which your business operates and print PDF versions of your posters for free. There are 15-20+ posters per state and federal requirements that can be printed individually. You will also be required to continuously monitor labor law changes for each posting. Remember, they can, and many do, update throughout the year.
  2. Order the 2023 labor law posters with us for $29.95– We compile all required state and federal posters plus OSHA into one, laminated 25″ x 39″ poster that’s backed by a compliance protection guarantee for up to $25,000 of fines covered. We’ll also send you an email alert when there is a mandatory update that requires new posters. You will have the responsibility of ordering and posting the new posters.
  3. Order the 2023 labor law poster with compliance protection plan for $77.94– As updates can happen throughout the year, we will automatically ship you new posters every time an update takes place at no cost, or limitations to the number of updates, for the next 12 months. This is our most popular plan for busy employers that want to take the year-long guesswork out of labor law compliance. The plan auto renews at the end of each 12-month cycle, but you have the option to opt out of renewals at any time.
