Required Office Signs

It is important to ensure that properties have posted all signs as required by Federal and State law, agencies, and Cambridge Real Estate Services policies. 

• Posters must be displayed in a manner and location that allows viewing by the affected persons, whether they are employees, residents, or prospective residents.
• Federal and State employment laws posters — These notices should be posted in each establishment in a conspicuous place where notices to employees are customarily posted. Each employer shall take steps to ensure that such notices are not altered, defaced, or covered by other material.
• Federal and State laws from agencies governing resident/property subsidy programs require posters be in plain view for all residents and prospective residents.
• The Federal and State government supply all required posters at no cost. Please contact Human Resources to order or replace posters at your property. Please note if you need posters in a language other than English.  As posters are revised or updated, Human Resources will provide new versions to replace or add to current posters.
• The Federal and State government will enforce fines to properties not in compliance with their postings.
• Many properties receive “junk” mail or email regarding Federal and State posters. Do not order forms from these vendors. Request the posters directly from the Human Resources department at the Site Employee Resource Center.
