The 2023 Legislative session continues to proceed with a record number of bills pending in the California Assembly and Senate, including a significant number of employment bills. The next important date in the legislative process is April 28^th. This is the deadline for bills to pass the crucial first substantive committee votes. Soon after that deadline, we should have additional clarity regarding the key bills likely to continue moving forward. Some bills will fail to proceed, thus culling the overall number of bills. We expect many other bills will be materially amended.

We have identified the “Top Ten” proposed employment law changes that – if enacted – would have the most significant impact on California employers.
