July 2026: Are you ready for 55+ new compliance requirements?

With summer closely approaching, many of us can finally dust off long-delayed vacation plans and schedule well-deserved time away from the workplace or home office.

However, for HR professionals like you, summer also brings the critical task of reviewing and preparing for employment laws that take effect on or around July 1, 2026.

And this year the new laws and ordinances— over 55 in total—span over 15 states and numerous localities and cover an array of employment topics from minimum wage to leaves and time off.

Get your organization ready to comply using our latest guide outlining a complete list of the new July 1 requirements by key topic and state.
