Mandatory
Postings
The U.S.
Department of Labor and the New York State Department of Labor have certain
requirements that employers need to post for all employees to review. The
following is a brief synopsis of the requirements to be posted:
FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS:
· Federal Minimum Wage
· Your Rights Under The Family Medical Leave Act
· Job Safety and Health Protection
· Equal Employment Opportunity
NEW YORK LABOR REQUIREMENTS:
· Working Hours for Minors Under 18
Years of Age
· Minimum Wage Information and Fringe Benefits and Hours
· Workers Compensation Compliance
· Discrimination and Sexual Harassment
You can contact the U.S. and New York State Departments of Labor to receive
copies of the required postings. We highly recommend that these postings are
not overlooked. We also recommend that careful consideration be taken to
complete the fringe benefits and hours section. The information that you post
will constitute the employer's policy on such issues as vacation and sick
leave. The more you have in writing, the better chance of avoiding potential
employee issues upon discharge.
If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
