Between managing a return to some normalcy with the rollout of COVID-19 vaccinations, the Great Resignation, and other HR challenges, checking your labor law posters may not have been top of mind. But now is the perfect time to catch up on all the changes that this year has brought and make sure you’re up to date for all of the changes announced so far for 2021 and 2022.
Keeping your workplace notices up to date can show your employees how much you value them and prevent costly legal penalties and even a lawsuit.

At Poster Compliance Center, we’re busy preparing labor law posters for 2022. While many labor law changes take effect on January 1, we anticipate that there will be a number of changes throughout the year.
That’s why our 1-Year Compliance Plan is so handy. You’ll always get automatic updates to all federal and state posters—at no cost—whenever a mandatory change is issued. You’ll also be enrolled in our $41,000 poster violation warranty, which means you’ll never pay a fine if our posters don’t keep you in compliance. You can also enroll in our City/County Poster 1-Year Plan, which will ship updates for 12 months, at no charge, whenever mandatory updates are issued.
