The U.S. Department of Labor has released an updated “Your Rights Under USERRA” poster. If your business displays employment law posters, now is a good time to make sure your USERRA notice is up to date.

USERRA (the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act) protects the employment rights of individuals who serve in the military, including members of the National Guard and Reserve. The law also prohibits discrimination against employees because of their military service or obligations.

Who Needs to Post the Notice?

All employers are required to provide employees with notice of their rights under USERRA. The notice may be displayed in the workplace where other required employment posters are located or distributed electronically if that is how your organization typically communicates workplace notices to employees.

What You Need to Do

To help ensure your business remains compliant, take the following steps:

• Download the updated July 2026 USERRA poster from the U.S. Department of Labor here [add link to: https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/VETS/files/USERRA-Poster.pdf.
• For physical workplaces: Print and post the new notice in a conspicuous location alongside your other required labor law posters.
• For remote or hybrid employees: Distribute the notice electronically through email, your employee intranet, HR portal, or another regularly used communication method.

Why This Matters

Keeping your required workplace notices current is an important part of maintaining compliance with federal employment laws. Updating your USERRA poster helps ensure employees understand their rights and demonstrates your commitment to meeting your legal obligations.

Taking just a few minutes to replace an outdated notice can help avoid unnecessary compliance issues and keep your workplace up to date.
