As an update to our previous blog on California’s Know Your Rights Act, the DIR has released the template notice, which can be found here. The notice currently is available in English and Spanish, and soon will be available in additional languages. The notice will be updated yearly.
As a reminder:
- By February 1, 2026, employers must provide each current and new employee with a stand-alone written Workplace Know Your Rights Act notice via regular communication methods.
- By March 30, 2026, employers must allow employees to designate an emergency contact or collect this information from new hires going forward.
Please refer to our previous blog for additional information regarding notice requirements.
