The proposed legislation, General Assembly Raised Bill No. 5277, mandates the Labor Commissioner and the Chief Manufacturing Officer, in collaboration with the Commissioner of Veterans Affairs, to post information regarding benefits and services available to veterans on the websites of the Labor Department and the Office of Manufacturing. This information will be accessible for employers to download and display in their workplaces, ensuring that veterans are informed about the resources available to them.
The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2026, and introduces new legal language to current law, specifically establishing a new section that outlines these requirements. There are no deletions from existing law in this bill, as it primarily focuses on the addition of new provisions aimed at enhancing the visibility of veterans' services in the workplace.
