The Wage and Hour Law is a labor law posters poster by the Hawaii Department Of Labor and Industrial Relations. This is a mandatory posting for all employers in Hawaii, and businesses who fail to comply may be subject to fines or sanctions.

This poster must be posted in a conspicuous place where all employees will see it. As of 2020, this poster describes the minimum wage, how overtime is dealt with and the right employees have to be notified their rate of pay and paydays. The law poster also details that employees cannot have their wages withheld by their employers, have the right to collect unpaid wages, and the right for family leave if a child is born or adopted by an employee. Other rights include the right to be paid the prevailing wages on government construction projects, the right to refuse a lie detector test, the right to file a complaint if suspended, discharged, or discriminated against solely because of a work injury for an employee getting Workers' Compensation under the Wage Standards Division.
