Effective April 1, 2016, all California employers must have a written discrimination, harassment and retaliation prevention policy that includes specific content and provisions.
The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) covers California’s civil rights laws, protecting workers in California from unlawful discrimination and harassment in employment.
Effective April 1, 2016, amendments to FEHA regulations require all California employers to implement a fully compliant and written harassment, discrimination and retaliation prevention policy that is distributed to all employees—with acknowledgment that each employee has received and understands the policy.
CalChamber’s Harassment, Discrimination and Retaliation Prevention Policy meets California requirements and includes a confirmation of receipt form for employees.
Select from single policies in English or Spanish for employers with five or more employees; or for employers with less than five employees.
Use the applicable versions to customize and communicate your required harassment, discrimination and retaliation policy to employees.
