SB 553 is a California law requiring businesses to implement workplace violence prevention plans. It affects most businesses in California, excluding specific healthcare facilities and small workplaces with fewer than 10 employees.
SB 553 mandates creating a workplace violence prevention plan, training employees on the plan, maintaining a log of incidents, and keeping detailed records of all related activities.
Non-compliance can result in fines, legal liability, criminal penalties, reputational damage, and operational disruptions due to unresolved workplace violence issues.
Stay compliant by developing a comprehensive violence prevention plan, conducting regular employee training, maintaining detailed incident logs, and keeping thorough documentation of all prevention activities.
