Do I Need A Labor Law Poster For My Business?
If you’re responsible for managing your company’s labor law posters you’ve probably asked yourself, “Do I need labor law posters?”, and the answer is “most likely, yes”. If you are an employer with at least one paid employee in their place of business, you must post federal, state, and local (where applicable) labor law posters.
How To Determine If You Need Labor Law Posters
Do You Have Any Employees On Payroll?
NO. If the answer is “no” then you do not need to post labor posters. The rest of this article will not affect you whatsoever; please feel free to discontinue your labor poster research until you have employees on Payroll.
YES. If you answered “yes”, are any of your employees on the payroll, not your spouse? If you have any employees on the payroll who are not your spouse, you are required to post the most updated version of the labor posters. The only exception to the employees on payroll stipulation is if you’re married to said employee. All other relatives still require access to compliance posters.
Additional Exceptions To Needing Labor Law Posters
Now that we’ve answered this question in the most simplified way possible, let’s explore some other questions that might bring new exceptions to light.
Do Federal Contractors or Subcontractors Need Compliance Posters?
YES. If you have at least one paid employee labor law posters are required to be posted.

How Do I Update My Labor Law Posters?
One option is to monitor the federal, state, and local government websites for new employment laws relevant to your business and industry. Usually, you can access notices on government or agency websites and individually print and post them. Beware that sometimes, a law is passed requiring a notice, but the governing body doesn’t release an official notice. You are still required to post the information.

Plan subscribers receive free, automatic updates every time there is a mandatory change that applies to them.
