The Colorado ( CO ) Employment Labor Posters are very important if you are an employer or an employee. These posters must be placed on the walls in the common areas, meeting room, or workroom so that everyone can see them. The purpose of the Colorado ( CO ) Employment Labor Posters is to inform everybody about the labor laws and how to comply with them. They also have contact information for employees to get assistance in case of violations of the laws. 

The state of Colorado requires that the following labor posters be present in the workplace: Workers’ Compensation Part 1 & Part 2, Discrimination Notice, Unemployment Insurance, and Minimum Wage Poster. Each Colorado employer must also produce his or her own notice specifying the regular paydays, and the time and place of the payment (referred to as PayDay Notice). Additionally, there are several Federal posting requirements. These include the following posters: USERRA - Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, Equal Employment Opportunity is the Law, Federal Minimum Wage, Employee Polygraph Protection Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, and OSHA-Job Safety & Health Protection. 

Whenever there are changes to the laws, the employer must obtain the newest version of the labor law posters and replace the old ones. For example, in 2006 there have been changes to the Colorado Worker’s Compensation plan, putting a maximum weekly payment of $719.74 into place. There has also been a recent change to the Colorado Unemployment Insurance, so those posters need to be updated as well. One Federal law that I can think of off the top of my head that’s new is the USERRA law, which is one of the required posters. If your posters are missing or are outdated or incomplete, you’re in violation of the law. So it’s very important to stay updated.
