Florida Employers Required to Post Human Trafficking Posters

Posted on by

09727[1]To help create awareness on human trafficking, the state of Florida has enacted Bill H 369. The new law, which became effective January 1, 2016, requires certain employers to post a human trafficking awareness notice in a conspicuous place (Florida Statutes, Section 787.29). The poster must be at least 8.5 inches by 11 inches in size, with at least a 16-point type. The posters must also be displayed in English and Spanish.

The human trafficking posters must be posted in locations where there is a likely chance human trafficking victims could be found, including:

  • rest areas, turnpike service plaza, weigh station, primary airport, passenger rail station, and welcome center managed by the Department of Transportation;
  • emergency rooms within general acute care hospitals; and
  • adult entertainment establishments and establishments that offer massage or bodywork services for compensation that are now owned by a healthcare profession.

If you are covered by the new law, make sure to order the new Compliance Poster Company Florida Human Trafficking Notice.
