		</ns0:GeneralSubject>
		<ns0:DigestText>
			<html:p>Existing law establishes the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, headed by the Labor Commissioner, within the Department of Industrial Relations, for the purpose of enforcing labor laws. Existing law prescribes the duties and rights of employers and employees relating to specified labor laws, including, among other things, workers’ compensation and notice requirements related to inspections conducted by an immigration agency.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill would establish the Workplace Know Your Rights Act. The bill would
			 require an employer,
			 on or before February 1, 2026, and annually thereafter, to provide a stand-alone written notice to each current employee of specified workers’ rights, including, among other things, the categories described above, as well as constitutional rights of an employee when interacting with law enforcement at the workplace, as specified. The bill would also require the employer to provide the written notice to each new employee upon hire and to provide the written notice annually to an employee’s authorized representative, if any.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill would require the Labor Commissioner to develop a template notice that an employer may use to comply with the notice requirement described above.
			 The bill would require the Labor Commissioner to post the template notice on its internet website on or before January 1, 2026, and to post an updated template notice annually thereafter. The bill would also require the Labor Commissioner, on or before July 1, 2026, to develop a video for employees advising them of their rights under the areas described above and to develop a video for employers advising them of their rights and requirements under those areas, as provided. The bill would require the Agricultural Labor Relations Board, the Public Employment Relations Board, and the Attorney General’s office
			 to provide specified input for the template notice and the videos.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill would require an employer, if an employee has designated an emergency contact for this purpose, to notify the designated emergency contact if the employee is arrested or detained on their worksite. If the arrest or detention occurs during work hours, or during the performance of the employee’s job duties, but not on the worksite, the bill would require the employer to notify the employee’s designated emergency contact only if the employer has actual knowledge of the arrest or detention of the employee. The bill would require an employer to provide an employee the opportunity to name an emergency contact on or before March 30, 2026, for an existing employee, and at the time of
			 hiring for a new employee hired after March 30, 2026.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill would prohibit an employer from discharging, threatening to discharge, demoting, suspending, or in any manner discriminating or retaliating against an employee for exercising or attempting to exercise their rights under the bill, as provided.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill would require the Labor Commissioner to enforce the bill, as specified, and would also alternatively authorize enforcement by a public prosecutor. The bill would provide that an employer who violates the bill may be subject to a penalty of up to $500 per employee for each
			 violation, except that the penalty for a violation of the provisions relating to emergency contacts would be an amount up to $500 per employee for each day the violation occurs, up to a maximum of $10,000 per employee.</html:p>
