What Labor Law Posters Are Required in Puerto Rico for Business Owners?

Puerto Rico has 1 mandatory poster update(s) in effect for 2026: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). If your poster was purchased before June 2026, it needs to be replaced.

What posters are mandatory vs. non-mandatory in Puerto Rico?

A mandatory update is a legislative change that makes the prior version of a notice non-compliant — employers must replace the poster. A non-mandatory update is a minor revision (e.g., an address or a governor's name change) where the prior version remains compliant.

Are there additional requirements based on business type?

To be in legal compliance, it is necessary for employers in the territory of Puerto Riceo to display, in their workplaces, the 2019 mandatory labor law posters. The 2019 Labor Law Federal and State employment posters satisfy this requirement. Each labor law poster, with accompanying description, is listed below. As noted, there are specific posting guidelines as to how to display the poster. If these guidelines are not satisfied a firm may face fines and/or citations. This poster has not received an update for 2019. An update can occur at any time without warning, so continue to monitor this page. However, there have not been any changes thus far this year.
