It isn’t necessary to pay for any requisite labor law postings, as federal and state agencies provide copies at no-cost to employers. However, some employers may find it beneficial to utilize commercial outlets that provide consolidated postings for a fee, rather than locate all the required forms separately.
Organizations lacking brick-and-mortar locations are still subject to applicable posting requirements. Per Department of Labor (DOL) guidance, employers with a remote workforce must adhere to electronic posting guidelines. State-specific posters can be found on each respective state DOL website, including Kansas and Missouri.
While some posters are specific to employers of a certain size, industry or state, five of the most widely-applied federal postings include
- Employee rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act,
- Employee Polygraph Protection Act Notice,
- Occupational Safety and Health Administration Job Safety and Health,
- Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, and
- Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Rights.
Employers should verify that obligations are being met, as failure to comply can rack up hefty fines. Bukaty Companies HR Consultants can provide further assistance in acquiring no-cost labor law posters.
