New Regulation Effective July 01, 2017

It is time again for your mid-year policy and Employee Handbook checkup!  For those who are not aware, Labor Code 230.1 codifies employees’ rights regarding domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking. Effective July 01, 2017 employers must inform each of its employees in writing about his or her rights under the established law. The regulation requires information be provided directly to employees at the time of hire and upon request and stipulates that specific information be communicated through the notice.  For those employers who utilize our Holden Law Group Handbook program, no need to worry, these updates will be provided to you and integrated into your annual handbook update. For those who have yet to join our handbook program, there is no better time to get into compliance than the present!
