PAGA reform is here — and every California employer should understand what changed. 📋

The Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) has been one of the biggest legal risks for California businesses. In 2024, major reforms (AB 2288 and SB 92) reshaped how PAGA works:

▫️ New cure provisions let employers fix violations before penalties escalate
▫️ Penalty caps for employers who take proactive steps
▫️ Standing requirements tightened — employees must personally experience the violation
▫️ Court discretion to reduce penalties based on good-faith compliance efforts

This is a window of opportunity. Employers who invest in compliance systems NOW can take advantage of these reforms to reduce exposure.

helps you demonstrate the good-faith compliance efforts courts look for — documented, automated, and real-time.
