Dear Employer,

The Maine Department of Labor and the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) are continuing to partner to host a series of focus groups with businesses, in order to help inform the Department's work to develop a comprehensive guidance manual on Maine's labor laws.

The manual will be a publicly accessible and free resource for employers to easily understand their legal obligations. In addition to the manual being useful for employers, the Maine Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Inspectors, who enforce employment laws, will also be using the resulting guidance materials in their everyday work. This is intended to increase transparency and consistency in how violations are determined.

The next session will be November 7 from 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at Jeff's Catering & Event Center, 15 Eventcenter Way, Brewer.
