California’s Workplace Violence Prevention Plan, Part III: SB 553’s Recordkeeping and Training Requirements

The speakers discuss the violent incident log that the new law requires employers to maintain, in addition to the requirement to provide a detailed description of any incident and a classification of who committed the violence. Robert and Karen, who is the West Coast chair of Ogletree’s Workplace Safety and Health Practice Group, also explain when employers are required to train employees, if employers must repeat the training, the languages in which trainings must be made available, and the topics that the trainings must cover.
