Workplace Violence Prevention Plan
On September 30, 2023, California Senate Bill 553 was signed into law and California Labor Code section 6401.9 and was effective and enforceable on July 1, 2024.
This new law requires most California employers with 10+ employees to establish, implement and maintain an “effective” Workplace Violence Prevention Plan (WVPP) in an effort to reduce workplace violence risks to employees.
