2026 Employment Law Updates 

Start 2026 with confidence. In one focused session, understand key California employment law changes from 2025. Understand what they mean for your policies and practices, and what to update now. Our employment law experts cover new statutes, regulations, cases and must-know information with clear, practical guidance. Live Q&A and downloadable slides included.

In California, the new year means new laws – and the close of this year’s legislative session brings a host of new laws that will shape labor and employment obligations for California employers in 2026 and beyond. This is in addition to regulatory changes in California and developments at the federal level during 2025, all of which affect the overall employment law landscape.

Join our Employment Law Experts as they explain the new laws, regulations and court decisions impacting California employers, and provide practical guidance and best practices for compliance. Topics will include, but are not limited to:

  • Minimum wage updates;

  • Pay equity and transparency changes.

  • Restrictions on “stay or pay” agreements. 

  • Use of artificial intelligence in the workplace.

  • Changes to California leaves, including paid sick leave, and Paid Family Leave.

  • Key employment law cases from 2025 and cases to watch.

  • New and revised employee notice and recordkeeping obligations.
