Recent Changes
- Minimum Wage - August 2008
- The minimum wage notice has been updated, adding a new subsection, “Mandatory Nurse Overtime”.
The paragraph states “…a hospital may not require certain nurses and certified nurse assistants to work overtime except in an unforeseeable emergency circumstance.”
- E-Verify - May 2008
- In accordance with Executive Order 08-01, signed on March 28, 2008, all agencies and departments within the executive branch of the State of Rhode Island government are required to use E-Verify to confirm the employment eligibility of all new hires. Furthermore, all persons and businesses (including contractors) doing business with the State must also use E-Verify.
E-Verify is a separate poster available for free download in our Specialty Poster section and is NOT included on the RI All-In-One poster. You must post an E-Verify Participation poster and a Right to Work notice. Both posters are required to be posted in English and Spanish.
