It is often said that it is impossible for an employer to fully comply with all of California's employment laws. They are just too numerous, too complicated and too often changing - and seldom for the better. There are so many traps for the unwary, and the stakes of getting it wrong are quite high for California employers. A simple mistake can lead to a seven-figure jury verdict or a class action lawsuit. California Employment Law 2025 is the go-to resource for anyone who must contend with employment law in California as part of their day-to-day work, including employers based outside of California who have employees working in the state. This valuable reference is updated to address new developments in 2024, including: - New requirements for requiring temporary employees to arbitrate employment disputes. - The new Freelance Worker Protection Act. - New minimum wages for health care workers. - Higher salary thresholds for overtime exemptions. - New requirements for cool-down breaks for indoors workers. - Restrictions on requiring job applicants to have driver's licenses. - Expanded leave requirements for employees who are victims of certain acts of violence, or whose family members are victims. - New restrictions on mandatory \"captive audience\" employee meetings preceding a union representation election.
