31 STATES HAVE HAD CHANGES IN THEIR LABOR LAW POSTERS IN 2007

Thirty-one states will have had significant changes in their labor law posters by the end of 2007. That’s in addition to the federal minimum wage increase in July which affected every state.

Fourteen states had minimum wage increases this year that are already in effect, including Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.

Additional minimum wage increases go into effect on January 1, 2008, in nine states: Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Missouri, Ohio, Oregon, Vermont and Washington.

Then there are eight other states that had significant changes this year in required notices other than minimum wage. These are Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Texas, Utah, Washington D.C. and West Virginia.
If your business is located in any of these states—or if you do not have a federal poster with the new federal minimum wage on it yet– you will need to update your posters.You can order an all-on-one state or federal poster or subscribe to Poster Compliance Center’s 1-Year Compliance Protection Plan with unlimited updates sent automatically whenever laws change.

DID YOU KNOW?
STATE MINIMUM WAGE CHANGES COMING JAN. 1, 2008

As of today 9 states have already announced that they will have major changes in their state poster requirements effective Jan. 1, 2008.

New Mexico has a new minimum wage as of Jan. 1, 2008, and the minimum wage will be adjusted for inflation every January 1 in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Missouri, Ohio, Oregon and Vermont. Washington is also changing, although its minimum wage poster is recommended rather than required.

All of these states will issue revised minimum wage notices before the end of the year. If you have a business in any of these states—or if you do not have a federal poster with the new federal minimum wage on it – you will need to update your posters.

One of the ‘next big things’ in the training industry is the use of ‘assessment tools’ to determine the extent of an employee’s knowledge about a particular topic, then customize their training to address only the things they don’t know. This has obvious advantages for employers, since it minimizes the amount of time that an employee is away from their normal work and engaged in training, while it provides employees with the information that they need to fill in their ‘knowledge gaps’.

MARCOM’s training courses have always had ‘pre-test’ capabilities. This in itself is a type of assessment tool, which allows employers to determine if an employee has enough total knowledge of a safety/regulatory compliance topic to ‘test out’ of a course entirely. MARCOM’s new assessment tools take this concept much further.

With CourseWorks 6.0 trainers can now create tests that can assess an employees knowledge of the information that is provided in each segment of a course. This will allow employees to ‘test out’ of individual segments within a course instead of having to test out of the entire course itself. Based on the results of these ’segment assessments’ CourseWorks® will then reconfigure the course for each individual employee so that it contains only the segments that address areas where the employee needs additional knowledge. This makes CourseWorks and MARCOM courses unique in the safety and regulatory compliance training industry, and make the time employees spend in training extremely efficient by focusing on only those areas where the employee’s knowledge needs to be increased.

Maryland has issued a revised workers’ compensation notice that includes a warning about withholding or giving false information about an employee’s work-related activity or return to work.The mandatory workplace notice now states that withholding or giving false information about a workers’ compensation claim could prevent an employee from receiving benefits and may lead to fines, imprisonment or both.

The revised notice also states that an employer’s workers’ compensation insurance company “may” pay an employee’s medical bills and other expenses. The previous notice stated that workers’ compensation pays for an employee’s medical bills and expenses.

In addition, the revised notice states that two-thirds of an employee’s salary may be replaced, while the previous notice stated that compensation would be at a rate “up to” two-thirds of that salary.

The notice also includes a new Spanish version and a website for anyone seeking information about workers’ compensation in Maryland. There is also a new requirement that the notice be printed on gold or yellow paper.

The revised workers’ compensation notice is included in a Maryland labor law poster set offered by Poster Compliance Center. The posters meet all of the state’s posting requirements for general employers.
