After starting (company) I received a letter in the mail that I must post current compliant State & Federal 2015 Employment posters in the workplace if I have 1 or more employees.
My question is this required for me considering I am the only one in my company? Do I count as one employee?
You should speak with an attorney who practices labor law in you state.
I do think that`s true. Did the letter cite any state or federal statutes? I think you can buy the posters at Office Depot: Labor Law And Breakroom Posters at Office Depot OfficeMax
(or other office supply stores)
If you are the only person who performs any services on behalf of the LLC entity...you aren`t going to complain to the labor board about yourself.
The notice you received is likely informational. But I`m not looking at it, so I`m guessing based on how you described it.
RMD is right...post a pdf of the notice for us to look at. It may be informational if you recently formed the LLC.
I practice transactional, tax, and estate planning law, which is why I said ask a local employment law attorney. I have a friend who I can ask about Federal law (whether a single member LLC with no employees is required to post the notice), but he can`t answer the question about Florida law.
It is usually the law in every state and under federal law that you need to post those, but as RMD said if you work alone you are the only employee and you wont call on your self (could get a customer that`s a PIA who could but that`s 1 in million chance as they should not have access to the area it would be posted anyways). Also most those notices are from company`s that sell the laminated large posters you would want to post. They look for any new businesses on the State Secretary`s online database and send out "information" (Sales) packs on the posters that looks like it was sent by the state to try and get you to think you have to buy their posters.
I got the same notice and it stated that if you have no employees you don`t need to post.
