Separate books for each state. Nice in that it compares to federal law on each topic. May be more worthwhile option if you're only concerned about one or a few states than if you have nationwide operations. Promotional email points out: "It's true. You can comply completely with FLSA, FMLA, and other federal law, but still get tripped up by state statutes you weren't aware of." And: "Unlike the federal government, which conveniently puts all new laws and regulations into one publication, the Federal Register, states use a variety of sometimes obscure journals to alert their citizens that the law has changed. These are not widely available, yet officials still expect you to know and to comply with the changes and will penalize you if you don't. Ignorance of the law, as usual, is no excuse."
