Louisiana Behind the Counter Protection Act Poster
The Louisiana Behind the Counter Protection Act Poster provides a workplace violence warning for customer-facing establishments in Louisiana. The notice informs customers and members of the public that workplace violence against an employee is a crime and may result in arrest and criminal conviction under Louisiana law.
The Louisiana Behind the Counter Protection Act applies to regulated establishments where employees regularly interact with the public at checkout stations, service counters, drive-through windows, customer service desks, cash registers, or similar points of transaction. Covered establishments may include retail stores, convenience stores, pharmacies, restaurants, fast-food outlets, gas stations with food or retail counters, and other qualifying commercial establishments.
Louisiana Behind the Counter Act Posting
Under the Louisiana Behind the Counter Protection Act, regulated establishments may display the prescribed workplace violence warning sign. Louisiana Works provides the official signage and directs that the notice be displayed in a conspicuous location where it is visible to the public near the entrance and counter area.
This specialty notice is intended to help deter workplace violence and reinforce protections for Louisiana employees who regularly interact with customers and the public.
