More Bad News For California Employers as Governor Signs Bills Into Law
MSK Client Alert
October 23, 2019
Recently, we informed our readers about a new law making it more difficult to classify independent contractors as such. Unfortunately, that was just the tip of the iceberg. A number of additional new employment-related bills recently signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom will have a negative impact on California employers. Unless specifically noted, these laws go into effect on January 1, 2020. MSK recommends that any employer with California employees should consult with their employment counsel to address questions regarding changes to current policies/procedures in light of these new laws.
