With changes in minimum wage rates in some locations as well as other new employment laws effective January 1, 2026, be sure that your workplace posters are up to date. You can obtain free workplace posters through the U.S. Department of Labor. Also check your states’ poster requirements. And provide any written notices required at this time. For example, under California’s Workplace Know Your Rights Act, employers are required by February 1, 2026, to provide written notice containing a description of various workers’ rights, which can be done with a state-provided notice template. #IdeaoftheDay
