Labor Law Poster Requirements 
for Employers

If you have employees you are required by law to display certain federal, state, and OSHA labor law posters in your workplace.

To make compliance with federal and state posting requirements easier, Business Know-How offers all-in-one labor law posters that combine all the current required state, federal and OSHA required notices on a single laminated labor law poster for each state. 

These posters measure  27" x 39" in size and cost only $32.95 plus shipping and handling.  Choose your state from this drop down list to view posting requirements and to place your order.

Note: The poster will contain the most up-to-date information available for general businesses at the time of order. If the nature of your industry requires special safety or other special notices, you will need to make separate arrangements to acquire them. It should also be noted that labor law posting requirements change from time to time. If there is such a change you would need to purchase a new poster to be in compliance.

Federal agencies also make their postings available for download. If you prefer to find and download all the regulations you are required to post, use the list of federal sites below to get started. Please remember, you'll also need to find and download labor law  notices for your individual state.

Posters should be displayed so that they are easily visible to the intended audience.

Please note that the Department of Labor may have notice requirements for certain specialized workplace areas or for certain occupations apart from the poster requirements in this document. For assistance with these notice requirements, please contact the Office of Small Business Programs.

For more information about poster requirements or other compliance assistance matters, you may contact the U.S. Department of Labor by telephone or visit the DOL poster page at http://www2.dol.gov/osbp/sbrefa/poster/main.htm
