Get free posters Upgrade to Pro

Pro starts at $49/yr for Maine plus federal, with every feature above. Need additional states? See multi-state pricing.

Free posters are easy. Keeping every employee covered is harder.

One remote hire can add another state's posting requirements. Industry, workforce size, and local rules can add more. Sending PDFs manually also leaves you to manage delivery, follow-up, and records yourself.

Pro gives HR one account for subscribed states, conditional postings, employee acknowledgments, and digital access. Employees never need ePoster accounts.

Upgrade to Pro, $49/yr

Employees in multiple states? Choose coverage for each state you need. See multi-state pricing.

Headquartered elsewhere with employees in Maine? They still need access to applicable Maine postings.

Maine labor law poster FAQ

What labor law posters are required for Maine in 2025?
Maine obligates employing entities to display both federal and state notices. Key posters cover topics such as wage & hour law, emergency phone numbers, and unemployment benefits. Some industries (for example food service or construction) may need additional postings under specific regulations. Learn more
How can employers obtain the mandatory labor law posters for Maine?
Employers may obtain digital copies from the state labor agency's website. The official site posts printable PDFs, and many companies choose to buy consolidated wall charts from private vendors to ensure they don't miss any requirements.
Where should Maine labor law posters be displayed, and are electronic postings permitted?
Posters should be mounted in a visible location accessible to all employees. Employers with remote staff may email or host the notices on an intranet as long as physical posters remain visible at the office. Remote employees should still be notified of their rights, typically via email or an intranet page.
Are Maine labor law posters available in multiple languages or accessible formats?
Official agencies often publish posters in English and other languages to serve diverse workforces. The Maine labor agency generally advises that notices should be provided in the language(s) understood by your staff.
What are the penalties for failing to display required labor law posters in Maine, and how often should they be updated?
Noncompliance could trigger fines and possible lawsuits by workers. Notices must be current; update them whenever minimum wage or other regulations change to remain compliant with changing wage rates, discrimination laws and other statutory updates.
What is Maine's Video Display Terminal (VDT) law and what must be included in the required VDT poster?
Maine's Video Display Terminal law applies to employers with two or more computers at a single location. It requires employers to establish an education and training program for employees who regularly use video display terminals and to post a VDT rights poster in a prominent location. The poster explains workers' rights and duties, including training provided both orally and in writing (written only if fewer than five terminals are on site), instruction on proper terminal use and protective measures, and a requirement that training be given within 30 days of hire and annually thereafter.
Which establishments in Maine are required to display the state's human trafficking poster?
Maine mandates its human trafficking poster only for specific locations: Maine Department of Labor career centers; offices that provide services under the Jobs Initiative Program; hospitals or facilities offering emergency medical services; eating and lodging places; adult entertainment nightclubs, bars or other sexually oriented businesses; and money transmitters, check-cashing businesses and foreign currency exchange businesses.
