Get Ready for Mandatory State Posting Changes in 2022
January is always a busy time for posting updates, and 2022 is no exception. Minimum wage changes and new laws will take effect, requiring businesses to display updated labor law posters. In some cases, states will be updating posters to reflect regulatory changes that took effect in 2021.

When a state updates a poster with a mandatory change, employers must take down the old version of the poster and display the new one. Most of the changes shown here are expected to be released around January 1, 2022, so employers in the states listed should be ready to make posting updates one of their New Year’s resolutions.
