The new Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) requires employers to post a Department of Labor notice regarding employee rights related to the COVID-19 pandemic with our other labor law posters. Where can we find this notice?

The FFCRA Employee Rights poster is available on the Department of Labor’s website, as are related frequently asked questions (FAQs). Links to the poster and FAQs are included in the resources below.

According to the FAQs, employers may satisfy the FFCRA’s requirement to “post and keep posted” the notice “in conspicuous places on the premises of the employer where notices to employees are customarily posted” by emailing or direct mailing the notice to employees or by posting the notice on an employee website.

For resources related to our guidance, please see:
