LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 526, as amended, Limón.
Department of Industrial Relations: domestic violence prevention.
Existing law establishes the Department of Industrial Relations and defines its functions to include fostering, promoting, and developing the welfare of the wage earners of California. Existing law, the Dymally-Alatorre Bilingual Services Act, requires any materials explaining services available to the public to be translated into any non-English language spoken by a substantial number of the public served by the agency.
This bill would require the Department of Industrial Relations to develop and prepare a poster regarding domestic violence prevention that employers may display in their workplace and to make the poster available to employers for download through the department’s internet website. The bill would authorize the department
to consult with the Department of Justice as to the content and design of the poster. The bill would require that the poster be made available in English, Spanish, and any non-English language required under the Dymally-Alatorre Bilingual Services Act.
