CMC’s Cal/OSHA and California Employment Law Summit

Conn Maciel Carey LLP’s Cal/OSHA and California Employment Law Summit is an in-person program presented by the California-based attorneys in CMC’s national OSHA • Workplace Safety and Labor • Employment Practice Groups, to provide updates about the workplace safety and health regulatory landscape in California, as well as important developments in employment and labor law affecting California employers.

Learn How to Navigate California Requirements

California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) is the most aggressive and enforcement-heavy approved State OSH Program in the nation, and with a packed rulemaking agenda on the horizon, most employers stand to be impacted by at least one new standard.

In addition, California continues to experience regular changes in the labor and employment law landscape through new legislation and decisions from the California courts and the National Labor Relations Board. California employers always have something new to learn as the legislative session closes at the end of September and we become certain of what new laws will take effect in 2025.

Our Cal/OSHA and California Employment Law Summit will include networking opportunities, open forums to collaborate with the Conn Maciel Carey team and your fellow attendees, and panelist sessions to cover:

• A review of new California occupational safety and health laws and regulations, including indoor heat, lead, and silica.
• A look into Cal/OSHA’s enforcement priorities, and further insight in recent Appeals Board decisions.
• An overview of new California labor and employment laws going into effect in 2025 as well as key decisions from the California courts.
• Fed/OSHA and NLRB updates impacting California, including the Worker Walkaround Rule
• Updates on the implementation of California’s new workplace violence prevention law and Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) reform and tips for compliance.
• What to expect from the Standards Board in 2025, including “enterprise-wide” and “egregious” citation classifications.
