With 2023 just around the corner, now is the time for employers to prepare for updates and anticipated changes to federal, state and local employment laws. Below is a brief summary of the landscape of changes to employment law for employers in 2023.
Employers have until June 30, 2023, to comply with the Chicago Human Rights Ordinance's obligation to provide "bystander intervention" training. For more information on these training requirements, review this post on Gould & Ratner's Human Resources Law Blog.
Several changes were made to the Chicago Fair Workweek Ordinance, which became effective July 1, 2022. For more information on which employers are covered and the new notice requirements, see this post to our Human Resources Law Blog.
Effective January 1, 2023, the CROWN Act, which stands for Create a Respectful and Open Workplace for Natural Hair, becomes law, amending the definition of "race" under the Illinois Human Rights Act to include traits associated with race, including, but not limited to, hair texture and protective hairstyles such as braids, locks, and twists. Employers should review their grooming and dress code policies before January 1 to ensure compliance.
