The Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) is pleased to announce the release of new posters designed to simplify Oregon’s complex labor laws for both employers and workers, available for free download on BOLI’s website.
Key Features of the New Posters:
- Free Access: At BOLI, we believe that crucial compliance information should be accessible to all employers without cost. These posters are available for free download, helping businesses understand their obligations.
- Multi-Lingual Availability: To support Oregon’s diverse workforce, the posters are available in seven languages, making sure that language barriers do not prevent compliance and awareness.
- All-in-One Posters for Sale: While the individual posters are free, BOLI also offers composite posters in English and Spanish for sale. These comprehensive posters consolidate key information for convenience and ease of display.
- Collaborative Effort: The development of these posters involved consultations with worker advocate groups, ensuring the posters are both informative and accessible, aiding workers in understanding their rights.
- Updated Legal Information: The posters include the latest updates to several key areas of Oregon law, including the Oregon Family Leave Act (OFLA), captive audience laws, and sick leave regulations, among others.
Empowering Workers and Supporting Employers:
Making Oregon’s labor laws accessible and easy to understand is a win-win for both workers and employers. BOLI is committed to supporting Oregon businesses in navigating their legal responsibilities, while simultaneously empowering workers with a clear understanding of their rights. By providing these vital resources in seven different languages, we ensure that all workers, including non-English speakers, are informed and empowered. This proactive approach not only helps prevent legal violations but also fosters a more inclusive and compliant workplace environment.
We urge all employers to take advantage of these free resources and prominently display the posters in their workplaces to enhance compliance and awareness.
Led by Labor Commissioner Christina Stephenson, the Bureau of Labor and Industries protects employment rights, advances employment opportunities, and protects access to housing and public accommodations free from discrimination for all Oregonians.
