Recent Updates in California State Law
Employers should be aware of several California laws that were recently enacted or went into effect. These laws expand the scope of care recipients that can trigger paid family leave obligations, extend the statute of limitation for survivors of sexual assault, strengthen protections for tipped workers’ wages, increase minimum wage statewide, provide collective bargaining and organization rights to rideshare workers, and prohibit “stay-or-pay” clauses in employment contracts.
