This bill aims to protect employees from adverse employment actions taken by employers based on their status as victims of violent crimes. It defines "adverse employment action" to include actions such as not hiring, discharging, or harassing an employee, and prohibits employers from taking such actions against employees who are victims of violent crimes or who are involved in legal proceedings related to such crimes. The bill also requires employers to make reasonable adjustments to an employee's job if they are a victim of a violent crime, which may include changes to work location, schedule, or safety measures.

Additionally, the bill mandates that employers post a notice summarizing the provisions of this act in a conspicuous location at their work sites and provide copies to employees, including translations for those who are not literate in English. Employers who willfully violate this requirement may face civil fines. Individuals aggrieved by violations of this act can bring civil actions for relief or damages within three years of the violation, with courts authorized to award various forms of relief, including reinstatement and attorney fees. The director of the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity is tasked with administering and enforcing the act, including the promulgation of necessary rules.
