Labor Law Notices

The requirement for employers to post labor law notices is imposed by the Department of Labor ("DOL"), the federal agency that enforces laws applicable to employers and employees. As a whole, the DOL enforces over 180 federal laws that impact over 10 million employers and 125 million employees nationwide. The DOL laws include the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") which regulates wages and hours of employees, the Immigration and Nationality Act ("INA") that regulates non-U.S. citizens who are authorized to work in the U.S. under various nonimmigrant visa programs, and The Occupational Safety and Health Act ("OSHA") which regulates workplace heath and safety. The DOL also enforces laws pertaining to workers' compensation, employee benefits, employee unions, employee protection, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and many other labor-related regulations. The DOL requires employers to post labor law notices in an accessible format to applicants and employees outlining the applicable labor laws, federal minimum wage, family medical leave, and describing their status as an equal opportunity employer.
