title: July Is the New January – 2025
description: Check out legal updates that are happening July 1, 2025, and through this fall!
---

July is almost here, which means new employment laws are taking effect soon! To see a snapshot of generally applicable labor and employment laws taking effect this summer and into early fall, check out Littler’s article “[July Is the New January – 2025](https://www.littler.com/news-analysis/asap/july-new-january-2025).” If you are interested in minimum wage and tip credits, visit “[Littler’s Semi-Annual Rates Update for Minimum Wage, Tips, and Exempt Pay Increases on July 1, 2025 (and Other Developments)](https://www.littler.com/news-analysis/asap/littlers-semi-annual-rates-update-minimum-wage-tips-and-exempt-pay-increases-july-2025).”

We have been working to update our solutions, including the Reference Center, Policy Smart, and Document Center with the applicable updates, so be sure to take a look. Make sure to check back often, because even though many updates have already been made, many legislatures are still active so new laws are taking effect on a near-daily basis.

Please feel free to reach out to us at [support@compliancehr.com](mailto:support@compliancehr.com) with any questions.
