GovDocs Expands City and County Labor Law Posting Coverage
By Erica Kritsberg
As of July 11 – See Customer Impact and FAQs sections below for updated shipping info and additional details.
For the past two years, GovDocs has offered city postings. Since then, we’ve seen a surge in labor laws enacted at the local level – cities and counties – covering minimum wage, paid sick leave, discrimination and “Ban-the-Box” laws.
In response to this ever-growing trend, GovDocs has recently broadened our selection criteria. Now, we actively monitor all U.S. city and county jurisdictions for postings required for all or most employers.
Along with our comprehensive city coverage, we offer postings for the following counties:
- Los Angeles County, CA: Los Angeles County Minimum Wage (English and Spanish)
- Broward County, FL: Broward County Wage Recovery
- Montgomery County, MD: Montgomery County Minimum Wage (English and Spanish)
- Prince George’s County, MD: Prince George’s County Minimum Wage (English and Spanish)
- Bernalillo County, NM: Bernalillo County Minimum Wage (English and Spanish)
We will continue to add new – as well as update existing – city and county labor law postings to deliver Total Location Compliance for your company.
