...or are we the only ones who see checklists and compliance training when we go to sleep at night?

Listen, no one is more aware of all the disparate elements required by California SB 553 โ€” more colloquially termed the Workplace Violence Prevention Bill โ€” than we are. (Except, perhaps, our lovely and very patient Legal team.)

The legislation goes into effect on July 1st, 2024, by which time you're expected to have a variety of safeguards in place โ€” everything from a Workplace Violence Prevention plan that's customized to your specific workplace, to training that ensures your employees aware of their responsibilities, to a violent incident log, to standards for retaining and maintaining records.

It's enough to get you stress-sweating, we get it. ๐Ÿ˜ฐ But take a deep breath and give that brow a wipe because...

We've combined everything into this easy-to-use checklist that will leave you confident you've taken every necessary step toward SB 553 compliance.

Even better? The checklist is absolutely free, and yours to use however you'd like. Loooove, your compliance guardian angel. (Or does "friendly neighborhood compliance fairy" have a better ring to it? It certainly has a better emoji. ๐Ÿงš) Regardless, please enjoy it, and let us know if you have any feedback or want to chat with our extremely knowledgeable Sales team about how Ethena can help you stay one step ahead of your compliance requirements.
