The first FAB (No. 2020-07), Electronic posting for purposes of the FLSA, FMLA, Section 14(c) of the FLSA, EPPA, SCA, and DBA, explains the circumstances under which an employer can meet its FMLA posting obligations via electronic notice. Under 29 C.F.R. § 825.300(a), covered employers must “post and keep posted” a notice explaining the FMLA and providing information about the procedures for filing complaints of violations of the FMLA with the DOL. The notice must be posted “prominently” where it can be “readily seen” by employees and applicants. The existing FMLA regulations already allow employers to meet the posting obligation through electronic posting, as long as all other requirements are satisfied.
