The other 2017 minimum wage update you may need to look at is the Federal Contractors\u2019 Edition poster<\/a>. It\u2019s been effective since January 1. It affects all federal contractors working in all the states. The new rate is $10.2. In the updated federal contractors\u2019 poster are new sick leave law requirements.<\/p>\n

One thing to note is that the updates affect the relevant labor law posters, which means you need to ensure that as an employer or HR professional you have the right one displayed on your walls.<\/p>\n

The updates also bear fines and or penalties upon infraction of the various provisions of the labor laws, including the requirement to post the operational minimum wage and other posters in your state. This leaves you and us with the need to look for information and relevant updated posters.<\/p>\n

The Labor Law Center<\/a> offers a worry-free service to our customers through our Poster Service Plan with automatic replacements. What this means is that we monitor the state and federal postings and automatically send you updates when they are released. It is that simple!<\/p>\n

We also offer our clients our newly updated Education Center<\/a>. If you are new to labor law compliance or just wanting to keep up with the latest news and changes as they come out, this is the place to bookmark and visit regularly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
