Oklahoma Labor Law Poster: Workers Compensation Notice Updated

Sep 28, 2011

The state of Oklahoma has updated its "Workers' Compensation Notice and Instruction to Employers and Employees" notice.

Effective Aug. 26, 2011, employers must inform their employees that a claim for compensation for any accidental injury or death must be filed with the Workers' Compensation Court within two years from the date of the accidental injury or death. Any person receiving temporary disability benefits from an employer or the employer's insurance carrier shall, within seven days, report in writing to the employer or insurance carrier any change in material fact or the amount of income the employee is receiving.

This change is mandatory and all employers must update their outdated notice dated 07/05 with the current version dated 08/11.

Personnel Concepts will be shipping replacement panels to all current update subscribers. Others can call Customer Service at (800) 333-3795 to inquire about obtaining one.

Those buying the Oklahoma State and Federal Labor Law poster in the future will receive the current workers' comp panel with the all-on-one poster.
