Effective January 1, 2025, AB 2299 draws attention to the importance that California places on whistleblower rights by requiring the Labor Commissioner to develop a model list of employees’ rights and responsibilities under California’s whistleblower laws. Employers must prominently display this model or similar poster in the workplace that will satisfy the preexisting requirement to display a list of employees’ rights and responsibilities under the whistleblower laws. The posting must also include the Attorney General’s 1-800-9520-5225 whistleblower hotline. The current form of the model poster provided by the Labor Commissioner can be found here.
