As 2024 is just around the corner, it’s time to get a handle on some key changes in pay and labor laws heading our way. We’re looking at an uptick in the minimum wage and a shake-up in sick leave policies. Understanding these updates is essential not just for staying compliant, but also for creating a great place to work.
As the year draws to a close, it’s crucial for employers to ensure that their payroll is accurate and up-to-date. This ensures not only compliance with local, state, and federal regulations but also helps maintain trust and good relations with employees.
As a California employer, you’re no stranger to the evolving landscape of employee rights and benefits. Come January 1, 2024, the Golden State introduces yet another significant leave entitlement: reproductive loss leave. As your trusted partner in employee matters, we’re here to break down what this, and all new California labor law, means for your business.
Paying close attention to details in managing payroll and human resources can often make the difference between success and adversity for organizations. Unaddressed issues can snowball into serious complications like compliance problems, unexpected expenses, legal hurdles, and unhappy employees.
The categorization of an employee as exempt or non-exempt is a critical decision for employers in California, impacting both the business and its employees. Understanding this distinction can feel complex, but it’s crucial in the realms of legal compliance, ethics, and strategic business planning.
The push for pay transparency has been growing across the United States, with many states working to close the gender and racial pay gap. California leads the way, introducing new pay transparency laws in 2023 that require employers to share salary ranges in job postings.
As data privacy becomes increasingly important, companies must start paying attention to it on behalf of their employees. Employers need to generate privacy statements and policies, informing employees about the information being collected, with whom it is shared, and why.
Minimum-wage jobs just don’t catch the eye. Let’s be honest.
California employers should be aware of the latest salary and diversity disclosure requirements when posting new jobs, as demographic and pay transparency requirements have recently been established by California legislation.
The prospect of finding and hiring an employee on your own seems straightforward enough. You identify the role you need to fill, you set up a list of criteria required for the job, you post your opening on a job board, and then you make your hire.
