Services for California Employers
Structured compliance programs organized around the employment lifecycle. Every program is built to California statutory requirements — cited, customized, and audit-ready.

Managing Employees

- ›Harassment Prevention Program (SB 1343)
- ›Workplace Violence Prevention (SB 553)
- ›IIPP, Leave Programs, Pay Transparency
Separating Employees
California law governs every step of separation. Final pay, COBRA notices, termination documentation, and reduction-in-force compliance.

- ›Termination Packet & WARN Act Analysis
- ›Reduction-in-Force Documentation
