Nebraska: New Human Trafficking Poster and Training Provisions for Hotels

Effective July 17, 2026, Nebraska’s LB 320 expands the state’s human trafficking prevention framework to require hotels and similar public lodging establishments to display informational human trafficking posters in English, Spanish, and other appropriate languages. The state Department of Labor is directed to develop compliant posters. Separately, hotels may (but are not required to) provide employees with training covering how to identify trafficking, distinguish labor from sex trafficking, and report suspected activity. Hotels that voluntarily implement this approved training, adopt reporting procedures, and establish a human trafficking prevention policy may be entitled to liability protection from claims arising out of a third party’s trafficking-related conduct at the property. Hotels are not entitled to this protection if the hotel, its owner, or its employees knowingly assisted the trafficking or failed to act reasonably.
