RSVP: Navigating California’s Evolving Employment Litigation Landscape

California employers are navigating a rapidly evolving litigation landscape, with new claims gaining traction and increasing exposure. This session will highlight emerging trends and practical strategies to mitigate risk.

We will discuss:

• Whistleblower retaliation claims under Labor Code section 1102.5 and recent case law shifting burdens of proof.
• Documentation best practices for complaints, investigations, and terminations to reduce the risk of retaliation claims.
• Sexual harassment claims aimed at avoiding arbitration agreements and their implications for employers.
• New and emerging claims shaping the litigation landscape.
• Proactive measures for policy updates, training, and compliance to stay ahead of these claims.

ACC members and Payne & Fears clients are invited to bring your HR professionals as your guests. Please register separately for each person. CLE, HRCI, SHRM credits offered.
