While many of the new posters are not yet available, they are likely to reflect the 2024 changes to California law with respect to an increase in the minimum wage and new protected categories (e.g. reproductive health decision-making). However, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has already released its updated “Know Your Rights: Workplace Discrimination is Illegal” poster, as detailed in our previous post.
Because these notices and pamphlets are required, California employers should make sure they have updated versions by the January 1, 2024 deadline. As a reminder, even fully remote employees must receive copies of these required postings and pamphlets.
