Annual New Employment Law Updates’ Summary

The deadline for passing new laws expired last week, and as usual, the Legislature and Governor have significantly added to the burden carried by employers in California. Outlined here are the new laws most likely to affect our clients. We have not included every new employment law, but instead, highlight some industry-specific laws as a reminder that you should always check for any industry-specific laws that may impact your organization.

These new laws will become effective on January 1, 2022 unless otherwise noted.

Let us know if you have specific questions about the new laws or how they affect your organization.
