Mid-Year Labor Law Poster Updates!
Posted by on May 16, 2024
As many California employers know, there are about 20 different state and federal notices that all employers are required to post in the workplace, and some carry the potential for hefty fines. As one example, failure to post the Employee Polygraph Protection Act Poster (last updated in 2022) carries a potential fine of almost $25,000—that is not a typo!
Since the start of 2024, there have been a few mid-year poster updates. For mid-year updates, we recommend printing and conspicuously posting these notices, such as next to your All-in-One Posters. Below is a summary of the changes, with links to access the postings!
Notice to Employees – UI, DI, PFL
Employers are required to inform employees of the Employment Development Department’s (EDD) programs, including Unemployment Insurance, State Disability Insurance and Paid Family Leave. The EDD’s Notice to Employees (DE 1857A) was just updated in May 2024. It is now in an easy-to-read format and contains new direct links for employees wishing to apply to these programs. (Note: Although it reflects a revision date of 1/22, it was added to EDD’s website as of 5/24.)
Fast Food Minimum Wage
As a reminder, as of April 1, 2024, all “fast food restaurant employees” covered by AB 1228 must be paid at least $20.00/hour and there is a required Supplemental Minimum Wage poster. For more information on this law, read our previous blog post here!
Transgender or Gender Nonconforming Rights in the Workplace
Lastly, the Civil Rights Department got around to updating its poster regarding Transgender and Gender Nonconforming rights in Spanish in February 2024. You can access the English poster here, which has a revision date of December 2023.
