Labor Law Updates

How often do labor law posters change? More often than many employers realize Labor law posting requirements are constantly in motion. New laws, revised regulations and shifting workplace environments can create compliance changes at any time, often without warning. Staying compliant means monitoring updates year-round and acting quickly when changes take effect.

If you rely on your workers’ comp insurance provider for labor law posters, you could be setting your organization up for a costly mistake. Many carriers offer a few basic notices at no cost, but they don’t cover the full range of federal, state and local requirements. That gap exposes businesses to significant poster compliance risks and fines — including government penalties and increased legal liability.

Remote work isn’t going away. Even as some teams return onsite, hybrid arrangements have become a permanent part of the workplace. This shift brings new compliance responsibilities, particularly around ensuring consistent access to labor law postings for all employees, regardless of location.

Keeping up with workplace compliance isn’t just a responsibility for HR — it’s a shared effort across every level of management. While most employers know labor law posters are required, many underestimate how vital it is for managers to understand the details.
