2027 District of Columbia Labor Law Poster — State & Federal All-In-One (Pre-Order)

2027 pre-order — ready to ship in early to mid January once the laws and new designs are finalized.

Description – 2027 District of Columbia State and Federal Combo Poster

The District’s wage floor resets every July rather than January, and it moved again mid-2026 — and the District pairs a tiered paid sick leave law with an employer-funded paid family leave program whose benefit weeks changed on October 1, 2026. This 2027 District of Columbia combo carries the current wage notice and the other required District and federal notices on one laminated poster.

• The District’s minimum wage is $18.40 per hour effective July 1, 2026, up from $17.95, and the tipped minimum wage is $10.30 per hour. The tipped figure reflects the Council’s amended Initiative 82 timeline, under which the tipped wage is set as a percentage of the regular wage (56% from July 1, 2026) rather than the original dollar schedule.

• The District’s Accrued Sick and Safe Leave Act (ASSLA) tiers paid leave by employer size. Employers with 100 or more employees provide 1 hour of paid leave for every 37 hours worked, up to 7 days per year; employers with 25 to 99 employees provide 1 hour per 43 hours worked, up to 5 days per year; employers with 24 or fewer employees provide 1 hour per 87 hours worked, up to 3 days per year. Tipped restaurant employees accrue 1 hour per 43 hours worked, up to 5 days per year, regardless of employer size. Source: DOES, Accrued Sick and Safe Leave Act study
• The District’s Universal Paid Leave program, as of October 1, 2026, provides up to 12 weeks of parental leave, 10 weeks of medical leave, 6 weeks of family leave, and 2 weeks of prenatal leave, with a maximum weekly benefit of $1,100. Medical leave was reduced from 12 to 10 weeks, family leave from 12 to 6 weeks, and the weekly maximum from $1,190 to $1,100 for claims filed on or after October 1, 2026; the program remains fully employer-funded with no payroll deduction from workers.
