Hello and thank you for allowing me to provide information about state and federal posting requirements, helping to answer possible questions pertaining to the South Dakota Posters, along with the way in which they can help get labor law and employee rights information to workers and managers. Employers are required by law to display the most up-to-date posters at the worksite or place of business, which is why using South Dakota Posters is such a huge benefit in allowing employers to meet state and federal requirements.

One of the key things to remember is that it is the employer’s responsibility to have current South Dakota Posters on display in an area where employees commonly gather or meet on a regular basis, such as in the lunchroom or in a break room. By doing this, not only do the employees get the important information they need, but the company is also covered if labor law posters are the focus of a labor inspection.

South Dakota has three important state posting requirements: Sexual Harassment, Unemployment Insurance, and Workplace Safety. For example, the Sexual Harassment law in South Dakota protects the rights of workers to be free from sexual harassment and to be treated equally on the job. As you can only imagine, this can be very important information for workers. Placing current South Dakota Posters on display is one exceptional way of sending the message out to each employee. In addition, the Workplace Safety requirement generally refers to the employee’s right to have a jobsite where they will be free of injury and able to do their work in a safe environment. This too is information that employees need. Once again, the convenience of having up-to-date South Dakota Posters on display is essential.

Federal posting requirements include Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA), Job Safety and Health Protection, Equal Employment Opportunity is the Law, Family and Medical Leave Act, Federal Minimum Wage and Employee Polygraph Protection Act. Among these requirements, the USERRA law is relatively new and protects the rights of those who choose military service but may not make a career of it. Under this law, the worker who goes into the armed forces, reserves, or National Guard can return to claim their civilian job after their military service is completed.

Now might be an excellent time for the employer and the workers to look at the South Dakota Posters on display to see if any changes have been made that would require the posters to be updated. As laws change, sometimes with minor amendments each year, it could be very important to have the most up-to-date South Dakota Posters available to employees at the worksite or place of business.
