Time to Update Your Poster
Employers – the EEOC has issued an updated “Equal Employment is the Law” workplace poster to reflect the recent changes in Federal Labor laws.
Specifically, the new poster includes updated information on the ADA Amendments, some updated DOL language, and information on the new Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) which goes into effect November 21.
The EEOC website has information on ordering new posters, but also has a downloadable version of the new poster, and a downloadable supplement to the 2002 poster, if you’ve got a glossy version of that one that you want to keep up.
Go download one of these two notices and put a pushpin in it. Not only will it keep you in compliance, but your employees notice when things like that change, and it makes you look like you’re thinking about their rights. (That’s a good thing.)

Since the start of this year we have seen a huge increase in the number of temporary jobs coming through. We are still seeing significant volumes of catering, secretarial and admin roles as usual, but the number of temping jobs requiring specific qualifications has shot up. It seems companies are trying to minimise their financial risk by employing qualified individuals on fixed-term contracts.
