California employers are navigating a rapidly evolving litigation landscape, with new claims gaining traction and increasing exposure. This session will highlight emerging trends and practical strategies to mitigate risk.

We will discuss:

  • Whistleblower retaliation claims under Labor Code section 1102.5 and recent case law shifting burdens of proof.
  • Documentation best practices for complaints, investigations, and terminations to reduce the risk of retaliation claims.
  • Sexual harassment claims aimed at avoiding arbitration agreements and their implications for employers.
  • New and emerging claims shaping the litigation landscape.
  • Proactive measures for policy updates, training, and compliance to stay ahead of these claims.
