What Every Business Needs to Know about 2024 Labor Law Poster Compliance

January 1^st is the most popular date for cities and states to revise their labor laws, requiring updates to workplace posters. Typical changes to watch for are state and city 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. Ensuring that your organization is compliant with your local labor laws will reduce the risk of labor law violations.

In addition to cities and states, changes to federal labor laws can occur requiring all businesses to update their workplace posters. In 2023, the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) updated the “Know Your Rights” poster and the federal Department of Labor (DOL) updated the “Employee Rights Under the FLSA” poster. Both of these notices have mandated posting requirements and noncompliance could result in penalties or fines. All of our complete labor law posters include these two federal labor law updates to ensure your workplace posters are in full compliance.

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 2024.

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, 2024. 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 workplace poster updates can (and do) come at any point throughout the year, January 1^st is a good time to check that your business is starting the new year in full compliance. 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.
