Please join us on Tuesday, December 6, 2022 at 11:00AM-12:00PM (PST) for our upcoming webinar: “California Legislative and Legal Updates.”

As the pandemic wanes and California adjusts to a new “normal,” the California Legislature has been very active and as a result, Governor Newsom signed a number of laws that will have immediate and long-term repercussions for California employers. Nicole Golob from Fisher Phillips will join us for an informative program covering important California legislative and legal updates.
