Relating to the creation, distribution, and posting of a veterans benefits and services poster in the workplace.
HB 1078 requires Texas employers with 50 or more employees to display a veterans benefits and services poster in the workplace. The poster, created by the Texas Workforce Commission (in consultation with the Texas Veterans Commission), must include information on applying for unemployment benefits, contacting the Texas Veterans Commission, accessing tax benefits for veterans, obtaining driver's licenses, and available services like job training, legal assistance, and mental health treatment. Employers must display the poster in a conspicuous location accessible to all employees, with the poster to be distributed by December 1, 2025, and the requirement taking effect September 1, 2025. This bill directly affects large employers and aims to improve veterans' access to state and federal support services.
