Selected Essentials in Farm Employment Law for Your State

Hiring workers for your farm but overwhelmed by all the employment laws you have to follow? Help is on its way.

The federal government sets the minimum standard for many aspects of employment law, including the federal minimum wage rate and overtime rules. State law also factors in by mimicking federal standards, and often exceeds them by adding their own. Because of this, employment law is an ever-changing landscape that varies from state to state. Lucky for you, we have compiled the essential employment law information for all 50 states, plus Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico. Find your state below to learn more about the employment law obligations for your farm business.
