As far as I've seen, the examples of that have always been things like health warnings and ingredients lists, where showing that message is a condition of being in that (licensed) business, and applies equally to any company.

Do you have a more custom example in mind?

All sorts of consent decrees, a huge amount of union and workplace law requires things to be posted for employees.

  • For employee things, I can understand being required to notify parties in agreements the company has entered into. As far as I understand, consent degrees are settlements and as such a mutually-agreed mechanism for ending a lawsuit early; their terms are whatever the parties negotiate and do not come from the government.

    • To be more precise, the law requires employees to publish the nlrb notice in well trafficked or otherwise conspicuous locations.

      I think there are other places where "government mandated corporation inform people of their rights" is a thing, especially with things like data use and sharing.

      In terms of consent decrees, that was the wrong example. But lots of judgements do involve various notification requirements.
