Deletes proposed GS 95-9.2 (Employers to post notice of veterans' benefits). Instead amends GS 95-9, modifying and adding to the existing requirement of employers to post notice of state laws relating to the employment of adults and children and the regulation of hours and working conditions.

Allows offering, upon request, a traditional notice with printed labor laws and a veterans benefit QR code linking to the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs resource website. Requires the digital form notice to have a QR code for labor laws linking to the Department of Labor's publications website and a QR code for veterans' benefits linking to the DMVA's resource website. Requires both DOL and DMVA (Departments) to promptly update the linked websites to reflect current State and federal benefit changes. Requires the digital form notice to include information about five listed services, including housing assistance and requests for military records. Directs DOL to consult with DMVA to create the veterans' benefits and services notice.
