If your company hires employees in California, you need to know how California employment laws differ from the federal laws. One general difference to keep in mind is that California laws are among the most far-reaching state employment laws in the nation, often providing workers significantly greater levels of protection than those offered by federal employment laws.

One example of California employment laws providing more protection than the federal employment law is California Wage and Hour employment laws. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) applies in every state, but states are free to pass laws that are more generous to employees. California has taken full advantage of this empowerment by enacting minimum wage laws that give employees a higher wage than the federal law dictates.

Help is on the way
California employment laws are also more generous when it comes to Overtime Law, equal pay and equal pay in public employment. Learn more about how California employment laws differ from federal laws at HR.BLR.com, the human resource experts.
