The 2022 California Legislative session ended on September 30, 2022, when the deadline for Governor Gavin Newsom to sign or veto pending bills expired.  Overall, this session resulted in fewer new employment laws of widespread application than in recent years, but there are still some significant changes on the way, including bereavement leave, new pay scale posting requirements, a further extension of COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave and application of consumer privacy laws to employee information collected by employers.
