The United States Department of Labor (DOL) has released updated posters regarding the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), which must be posted in a conspicuous location in the workplace where employees can read them.
The Details:
FLSA Minimum Wage Poster
The DOL has revised its FLSA minimum wage poster to include information on employee rights under the Providing Urgent Maternal Protections for Nursing Mothers (PUMP) Act. Under the PUMP Act, as of December 29, 2022, nearly all FLSA-covered employees have the right to lactation accommodations for up to one year after a child's birth. However, employers with fewer than 50 employees are not subject to the FLSA break time and space requirements if compliance with the provision would impose an undue hardship.
The DOL has noted all prior versions of the poster no longer meet FLSA requirements.

FMLA Poster
The FMLA poster has been updated to explain what is considered a covered employer for FMLA purposes. However, the DOL has communicated that the April 2016 and February 2013 versions may still be used to meet the FMLA posting requirement.
Access to the updated FMLA poster may be found here.
Next Steps:
· Employers, if they have not done so already, should replace their current version of the FLSA minimum wage poster with the April 2023 version.
· Employers subject to the FMLA may choose to replace the April 2016 or February 2013 versions posted in the workplace with the updated April 2023 version.
