2023 Labor Law Changes: Be Prepared
Fall has been a busy season for lawmakers and with that comes many changes to labor law posting requirements. It is essential for businesses to stay up to date on those changes. It can be challenging to continuously monitor the various government agencies that regulate labor laws. On top of the federal requirements, each state has its own mandated posters. Additionally, many businesses have locations in more than one state which creates additional challenges to keeping up with the latest laws and the implications of those laws.
As fall is quickly winding down and the new year seems just over the horizon, here at NSC, we are closely monitoring labor laws and posting updates that are on the way for 2023. While many states update the minimum wage requirement on January 1, those aren’t the only changes to come next year. As a matter of fact, some states will need to increase the expected minimum wage because of inflation. A few states have either new Paid Medical/Family Leave postings coming or an update to an existing Paid Leave poster.
States with labor law posting updates for 2023:
- Alaska
- Arizona
- Colorado
- Maine
- Massachusetts
- Minnesota
- Montana
- Nebraska
- Ohio
- Oregon
- South Dakota
- Vermont
- Washington

As stated previously, this year there are a number of states that are expected to have a minimum wage increase that is larger than scheduled due to inflation. This is likely to require an update to some posters that were not anticipated to be updated this year. We are closely watching those developments. Along with minimum wage and paid family leave, in some states it is feasible to see changes to their whistleblower protections, personal protective equipment, child labor laws, pay equity, and discrimination notices.
States that are likely to have an update in 2023:
- California
- Federal Contractor
- Illinois
- Louisiana
- Maryland
- Missouri
- New Hampshire
- New Jersey
- New Mexico
- New York
- Rhode Island
