Here's a great article (link is at bottom): 10 Answers to FAQs About California’s Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Law- Employers have asked a broad range of questions regarding California’s groundbreaking new law establishing the state’s first general industry workplace violence prevention requirements. Given the complexity of SB 553, it makes sense to continue the discussion and explore the statute further. Here are our answers to an additional 10 questions frequently asked by employers, in addition to 12 already addressed. Question. Is there any grace period with respect to the implementation of the new law? Answer. The new law does not have any built-in grace period. The new law takes effect on July 1. Question. What is the timing on the training? Answer. Employers are required to provide training when their workplace violence prevention plans are first established and annually thereafter. Therefore, employers are expected to ensure that employees are trained by July 1. Question. Is there an interactive training requirement? Answer. The training must have “[a]n opportunity for interactive questions and answers with a person knowledgeable about the employer’s plan.” Question. Is an employer required to involve employees in creating the plan? Answer. Yes. The new law requires effective procedures to obtain the active involvement of employees in developing and implementing the plan. Question. How does an employer handle multiemployer worksites, such as construction sites, vendor situations, or sites with temporary staff, where there are employees from other employers? Answer. An employer must coordinate the implementation of the plan with other employers on a multiemployer worksite. Question. Does an employer’s workplace violence prevention plan have to identify who is responsible for the plan? Answer. Yes. An employer must identify the “[n]ames or job titles of the persons responsible for implementing the plan.” Question. Are employers required to have active shooter preparedness training as part of their workplace violence prevention plans? Answer. The law does not explicitly mention active shooter preparedness training.
