Employee Handbook Updates REQUIRED – Employee Rights/ Labour Relations

Update your employee handbooks! The California Legislature
passed a whole slew of workplace reform bills that took effect
January 1st. Several require California employers either to add new
policies to their Employee Handbooks or revise and update existing
policies. The changes/additions include everything from leaves of
absence, time off rights and paid sick leave increases, to
employment discrimination, health and workplace safety measures,
meal and rest period requirements, new posting requirements, and
much more. State and federal agencies have also adopted new
regulations that require changes in personnel policies. This means
that your handbook may be out of date.

The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
