Choosing a PEO in Vermont
Vermont's minimum wage rose to $14.42 per hour on January 1, 2026, adjusted annually for cost of living under 21 V.S.A. § 384. Overtime is paid at 1.5 times the regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a week. A new pay transparency law (Act 155), effective July 1, 2025, requires employers with five or more employees to include a compensation range in every written job posting for a Vermont-based role.
Vermont significantly expanded its Parental and Family Leave Act under Act 32, effective July 1, 2025 — adding bereavement leave, safe leave, and military qualifying-exigency leave, and broadening the definition of covered family members to include domestic partners, grandparents, grandchildren, and siblings. Separately, Vermont launched a voluntary paid family and medical leave insurance program (VT-FMLI), with individual coverage available starting January 1, 2026 — notably an opt-in program rather than a mandatory payroll tax like most states with state PFML.
Workers' compensation insurance is required for Vermont employers, and employers must pay for it themselves — deducting the premium from employee wages is illegal and can draw a fine of up to $500, even if the employee agreed to it. Vermont has its own Notice of Potential Layoffs Act, a state mini-WARN law requiring employers conducting a closing or mass layoff of 50 or more employees over a 90-day period to provide notice, layered on top of the federal WARN Act. Vermont regulates PEOs under its Employee Leasing Statute, overseen by the Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities, and Health Care Administration, with quarterly per-client reporting requirements.
Final pay in Vermont depends on separation type: discharged employees must be paid within 72 hours, while employees who quit are due their wages on the next scheduled payday or the following Friday, whichever comes first. Vermont's economy centers on tourism, agriculture (particularly dairy), healthcare, and a growing technology sector. A PEO with Vermont expertise can help businesses navigate the state's expanded family leave rules, pay transparency requirements, and workers' comp payment rules.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum wage in Vermont in 2026?
Vermont's minimum wage is $14.42 per hour as of January 1, 2026, adjusted annually for cost of living. Tipped employees must be paid at least $7.21 per hour, with the employer making up any shortfall if tips do not bring total pay to the full minimum wage.
Does Vermont require pay transparency in job postings?
Yes, as of July 1, 2025. Under Act 155, Vermont employers with five or more employees must include a compensation range in every written job posting for a Vermont-based role, including remote positions where the work is performed for a Vermont office.
Does Vermont have a state paid family and medical leave program?
Yes, but it is voluntary rather than mandatory. Vermont's Family and Medical Leave Insurance program (VT-FMLI) became available for individual coverage on January 1, 2026. Unlike most states with paid leave programs, Vermont's is opt-in rather than funded through a mandatory payroll deduction.
When must Vermont employers pay a departing employee's final wages?
Vermont requires discharged employees to be paid within 72 hours of termination. Employees who quit must be paid by the next scheduled payday or the following Friday, whichever comes first.
