Matt Gauen and Stephen Glazier of Woodruff Sawyer will discuss workplace violence regulations.

California’s New Workplace Violence Prevention Program (WVPP)

• Who has to comply?
• When do they have to comply by?
• What does compliance look like?

Are the WPVV and IIPP regulations connected?

Does SB553 also contain changes to restraining order regulations?

Any group already complying with Title 8, 3342 for healthcare does not have to make changes.
