Remote Workers Will get a Written Notice Before 30 Days of Reporting Back to Office
A new legislation in California will prove very beneficial for remote workers. This new law helps remote workers in a very special way. Many companies in the recent past issued report back-to-office notice just a few days before the reporting time. This created significant problems with relocation.
Senate Bill 731, which offers improved rights and safeguards for those working from home, is one of the major changes to legislation affecting remote workers.
The primary focus of SB 731 is the mandate that employers give written notice of thirty days before requiring remote workers to report back to the office.
In keeping with the changing nature of work arrangements, this notice period gives employees enough time to get ready for the changeover.
The legislation also addresses the rights of workers with disabilities, recognizing the variety of demands within the workforce. SB 731 allows employees with disabilities to continue working remotely as a reasonable accommodation.
This legislation will provide ample time for remote workers to relocate if they work from any other location.
