Who is Required to Display Federal Labor Law Posters?
Posted on November 19, 2018 by

Every company, regardless of industry and size, is required to comply with a variety of labor law posting requirements.
For example, you must be sure to post all labor law posters required by both federal and state law.
While obtaining the required posters is the first step, there’s something else to think about: the way you display these at your place of employment. In other words, it’s not good enough to simply purchase labor law posters. They must be displayed at your place of employment in the area required by the United States Department of Labor.
Here’s an excerpt from the United States Department of Labor website that provides a general overview of posting requirements:
“Generally, federal workplace posters must be displayed or posted in conspicuous places where they are easily visible to all employees — the intended audience. The FMLA, EEO, and EPPA posters are also required to be placed where they can be seen by applicants for employment.”
Below is a break down of 12 commonly displayed federal labor law posters, including details on location requirements:
