Labor Law Updates

As 2025 unfolds, employers must stay ahead of evolving employment laws to ensure compliance and protect their workforce. Here are five key trends shaping the employment law landscape this year, along with insights on what they mean for businesses.

With all the labor law issues you must navigate as an employer, you may wonder if workplace poster compliance is that big a deal. Who’s even checking if you’re displaying these postings?

Whether you have two employees, 200 or 200,000, one federal requirement is perfectly clear: You must — absolutely must — display labor law posters in the workplace.  Failure to comply could lead to costly fines, which could severely impact the ongoing viability of smaller businesses.

Even as more companies return to the office full-time, remote work is here to stay. This shift continues to create new compliance challenges for employers, especially regarding sharing labor law information with all employees — whether they're on-site, hybrid or fully remote.

New laws, amended regulations and shifting employee work arrangements continuously impact labor law posting requirements. Staying compliant requires vigilance; it’s not just a once-a-year task. To avoid costly mistakes, you must stay updated on changes as they happen -- and act quickly to keep your business covered year-round.
