Employers are required to post the notice at physical work sites when permitted by local order and state law by or on April 1, 2020.  During the pandemic, employers may satisfy the notice requirements of the Act by emailing or direct mailing the notice to employees, or posting the notice on an employee information internal or external website. Because the Act’s requirements only apply to current employees, the notice does not have to be shared with laid-off individuals or prospective employees.
