Delaware-Specific Labor Law Posters

In addition to the federal labor law posters listed above, Delaware employers are also required to post the following mandatory state labor law posters. They must be displayed in a conspicuous and accessible place. Businesses that fail to post these notifications may be subject to penalties or fines.

• *Delaware Minimum Wage Poster: Employers must post this notice that includes the most up-to-date minimum wage rate. Effective January 1st, 2022, the minimum wage will increase to $10.50/hour. The training rate for adults for their first 90 days on the job is $8.75 per hour. The poster also explains that employers must keep pay records for each employee for three years. The minimum wage rates scheduled for January 1st, 2023, January 1st, 2024, and October 1st, 2025 are now included in the notice. New publication date of 11/21
• *Delaware Payment of Wages Poster: This notice is required for employers with four or more employees. It must be provided to employees in writing when they are hired, and it must include their rate of pay; the day, hour, and place of payment; and a summary of the employer’s benefits policies.
• Delaware Child Labor Poster: This poster, required only for companies that employ minors, summarizes the state’s child labor laws.
• Delaware Discrimination Poster: This notice is required for employers with four or more employees. It summarizes the acts that qualify as illegal employment discrimination under the law and explains the procedure for filing a complaint. Under Delaware law, employers may not discriminate against employees because of their race, color, national origin, sex (including pregnancy), religion, disability, age, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, or membership in a volunteer emergency responder organization (volunteer firefighters, ambulance personnel, or ladies’ auxiliary). The law also forbids discrimination against victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking as well as against those with family care responsibilities. Discrimination based on reproductive health decisions is also prohibited.
• *Delaware Workers’ Compensation Poster: Delaware employers must post this notice for their employees and carry workers’ compensation insurance coverage. The poster explains the obligations of both employers and employees in the event of a workplace injury, including recordkeeping requirements.
• *Delaware Employee Breaks Poster: Employers must post a notice describing the breaks required during working hours.
• Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Poster: Employers cannot retaliate against an employee relating to payment, terms, conditions, and work benefits. Employees or those acting on behalf can report workplace violations that have occurred or are about to occur. Violations can be reported verbally or in writing. Employees can participate in a civil investigation relating to a violation. Employees must report violations within 3 years after the event. Judgments must order employee reinstatement, back wages, fringe benefits, seniority rights, expungement of records, actual damages, or a combination of damages, litigation, and attorney fees.

Employers in various industries may have additional labor law posting requirements. They may also have an obligation to post in multiple languages, depending on the composition of their workforce.

NOTE: Spanish posters may not include all notices published on the English poster and may vary from our standard 18″w x 24″h size since some states do not issue all notices in Spanish.
