The U.S. Department of Labor\u2019s Wage and Hour Division (WHD) announced guidance to provide information to workers and employers about how each will be able to take advantage of the protections and relief offered by the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) when it takes effect on April 1, 2020.<\/p>\n
The new guidance includes a new required poster\u00a0for all employees<\/a>\u00a0that will fulfill notice requirements for employers obligated to inform employees about their rights under this new law. It also includes\u00a0questions and answers<\/a>\u00a0about posting requirements, and\u00a0a Field Assistance Bulletin<\/a>\u00a0describing WHD\u2019s 30-day non-enforcement policy. The new guidance addresses critical issues such as whether employers may post required notice electronically, whether employers must provide notice of this law to recently laid-off individuals, when FFCRA applies to federal workers and when enforcement of the new rules will begin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The U.S. Department of Labor\u2019s Wage and Hour Division (WHD) announced guidance to provide information to workers and employers about how each will be able to take advantage of the protections and relief offered by the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) when it takes effect on April 1, 2020.
