What Florida Labor Law Posters Are Required in 2026?

Florida employers must display five mandatory state notices and a set of federal posters at every active worksite. In 2026, the minimum wage poster has already changed, a second update is coming this September, and the Child Labor poster reflects rules put in place in 2024. Here is what needs to be on your wall right now.

What Changed in 2025 and Early 2026

The biggest change heading into 2026 is the Florida Minimum Wage poster.

On September 30, 2025, Florida's minimum wage increased to $14.00 per hour for non-tipped employees and $10.98 per hour for tipped employees. If your poster still shows $13.00, you are out of compliance and need to replace it now.

The Child Labor Law poster also received a mandatory update in July 2024. It now reflects that minors aged 16 and 17 are permitted to work more than 8 hours on Sundays and holidays, even when school is scheduled the following day. Employers of minors need the updated version posted.

The Reemployment Assistance poster (RT-83) received a minor agency name update. Confirm your posted version carries the current Florida Department of Revenue branding.

Tools like ePoster by Edoc Service track these changes and push updates to your digital poster display automatically, so you are not manually reviewing agency websites each quarter.

What to Expect for the Rest of 2026

Florida's minimum wage schedule, set by voter-approved Amendment 2 in 2020, ends this year.

On September 30, 2026, the minimum wage reaches $15.00 per hour. A new Florida Minimum Wage poster will be required on or before that date. After 2026, wage adjustments will be tied to inflation starting September 30, 2027.

In practice, Florida employers face two minimum wage poster updates within a single calendar year: the current $14.00 version now, and the $15.00 version coming in September.

If you use eDocEposter.com, the September update will push to your digital poster display automatically when the new rate takes effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

• My Florida Minimum Wage poster still shows $13.00. Am I out of compliance?

  The minimum wage increased to $14.00 on September 30, 2025. A poster showing $13.00 is out of date. Replace it with the current version from the Florida Department of Commerce or through a compliance platform. Displaying an outdated poster during an audit or inspection is a compliance gap, regardless of intent.

• Does the Florida Discrimination poster apply to every employer?

  No. The Florida Law Prohibits Discrimination poster is required for employers with 15 or more employees under Florida Statutes §760.10. Employers below that threshold are not required to post this notice. The underlying civil rights protections are a separate matter from the posting requirement itself.

• My employees all work remotely in Florida. Do I still need to post labor law posters?

  If you have no active Florida worksite with in-person employees, physical posting in the traditional sense does not apply in the same way. The DOL's guidance on remote workers supports providing electronic access to required notices when employees do not regularly visit a posted location. Florida has not issued state-specific rules on this. Most compliance professionals recommend digital access to all required notices for fully remote workforces and physical postings at any location employees visit.

• When does the Florida Minimum Wage poster need to update again?

  September 30, 2026. The rate increases to $15.00 per hour for non-tipped employees on that date. A new poster reflecting the $15.00 rate is required on or before that date. After 2026, the rate adjusts annually based on inflation.

• What are the penalties for not posting required Florida notices?

  Penalties vary by poster and enforcing agency. Workers' Compensation posting violations are enforced by the Florida Division of Workers' Compensation under §440.40. OSHA posting violations carry federal civil penalties per violation. Reemployment Assistance posting is enforced by the Florida Department of Revenue. There is no single flat penalty across all posters. Beyond direct fines, missing posters create risk in audits and employment disputes where employers are unable to demonstrate a good-faith compliance effort.
