RECORDING HIGHLIGHTS:

California often sets itself apart from other states and leads HR trends in many ways. If you are not prepared, watch out. Leaves of absence, sexual harassment training requirements, meal breaks, domestic partnerships, vacation, termination and privacy issues are just some of the tricky issues in California. And don’t forget exclusive case law and statutes!
