2026 Employment Law Summit

Description

California employers can expect a full slate of new employment laws in the New Year.  Some of these changes require immediate action, such as policy revision and new notices, and all require an employer’s full attention.
 
Our presentation will cover these new laws, important changes at state and federal agencies, and other developments employers should watch in 2026.  And as always, there will be plenty of time for questions,  Some covered topics include:
 
 
  *   Changes to the California Equal Pay Act and pay data reporting
