HRInformant previously [reported](http://calchamber.typepad.com/hrwatchdog/2013/02/new-fmla-regulations-mandate-poster-change-for-employers-with-50-or-more-employees.html) that the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) issued important new regulations expanding federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) protections. 

The new regulations require a mandatory change to the federal FMLA poster entitled *Employee Rights and Responsibilities Under the Family and Medical Leave Act*.

To clarify any confusion employers may have, the new FMLA regulations (and the FMLA posting requirement) do not affect you if you are a private-sector employer with less than 50 employees.

The FMLA applies only to the following covered employers:

## [First Federal Court Ruling on NLRA Poster Requirement](https://promotion-payroll-hr.pinnaclehro.com/human-resources-articles/bid/72827/First-Federal-Court-Ruling-on-NLRA-Poster-Requirement?hsLang=en-us)

Today, a federal district court for the District of Columbia issued a decision in a lawsuit brought by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) challenging the new NLRA posting requirement. The court upheld the posting requirement, but struck down some of the enforcement provisions relating to the new rule.

As previously reported, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) decided to require most private-sector employers to post a new notice entitled "Employee Rights Under the National Labor Relations Act." NAM challenged the posting requirement on multiple legal grounds, including arguments that the posting requirement exceeded the NLRB’s authority under the NLRA and that the requirement violated employers’ First Amendment free speech rights.

In the first decision on this issue, the federal court issued a split decision upholding part of the new rule, while overturning other provisions. The court [ruled](http://www.uschamber.com/sites/default/files/059%20Ct%20Opinion%20re%20NLRB%20Notice-Posting%20(D.%20D.C.%203-2-2012).pdf) that:
