Effective April 1, 2016, changes to California’s Fair Employment & Housing Act (FEHA) require employers to update their posters regarding pregnancy disability leave.

The new notice for employers of between 5 and 49 employees, entitled “Your Rights and Obligations as a Pregnant Employee” should be displayed by such employers immediately, explains Pregnancy Disability Leave, and describes the obligations of both employee and employer. This replaces “Notice A,” which was the posting formerly required for employers this size.

Employers who have 50 or more employees must post “Family Care and Medical Leave (CFRA Leave) and Pregnancy Disability Leave,” which describes CFRA leave eligibility, requirements of the employee, and obligations of the employer. This posting replaces “Notice B.”

Laws and situations relating to pregnancy are myriad and complex. Contact Freeland Law APC for a consultation with Michael Freeland, experienced employment lawyer serving San Diego, California.
