Arkansas Labor Law Poster

Every state in the United States of America has their own labor laws. Aside from the Federal Labor Laws that are identical to every state, they also have each of their own State Labor Laws. These State Labor Laws are not totally identical to all states, some state labor law, like the non-smoking law can only be found in some state, while the minimum wage labor law are found in all state labor law. These labor laws are then printed out in posters, which are the Federal Labor Law Poster and the State Labor Poster. These posters are then placed on areas where they can be easily read by all employees of the company.
