Workplace Posting Requirement Requires Update

News from CalChamber

Sacramento, CA:  On March 18, 2020, President Trump signed additional emergency relief legislation known as the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA). The FFCRA takes effect on April 1, 2020, providing paid sick leave and expanded family and medical leave related to COVID-19.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) just released the required poster for private employers outlining the FFCRA’s paid leave requirements.

• This new notice is a supplement, so no changes are required to your CalChamber 2020 California and Federal Labor Law Poster.
• Employers with remote employees can comply with the DOL’s posting requirement by “emailing or direct mailing this notice to employees, or posting this notice on an employee information internal or external website.”
Please be aware that the DOL may make additional changes to the notice as circumstances change.

If you have questions, here is a link to the DOL’s FFCRA notice FAQs. More guidance and regulations are expected.

You can read more about the legislation on the DOL’s Families First Coronavirus Response Act: Questions and Answers page.
