Recently, the North Carolina Department of Labor made updates to the required Labor Law Posters based on legislative changes in Senate Bill 208/ S.L. 2021-82.
These new posters include the recent amendment to North Carolina’s Wage and Hour Act requiring:
- Employers must provide written notice to new hires of promised wages, day and location of wage payment (if wages are delivered in person), and method of payment;
- Employers must notify employees in writing at least one pay period prior to any changes in promised wages; and
- Employers must send final paychecks through regular pay channels or by trackable mail if requested by the employee in writing.
For more information on the changes please see our previous article, available here. The new posters with an effective date of November 29, 2021, can be found here.
