This bill amends the Minnesota Human Rights Act by introducing new notice requirements for employers and school districts. Specifically, it adds a subdivision to section 363A.08, mandating that employers post and maintain printed materials that outline workers' rights under the Act. These materials must inform employees about their rights to file charges or bring civil actions and should be easily accessible. Employers are encouraged to present this information in plain language and to actively work towards identifying and reducing discriminatory conduct.

Additionally, the bill amends section 363A.13 by requiring school districts to inform students, parents, and guardians of their rights under the Minnesota Human Rights Act at the start of each school year. This notice must be posted on the district's website in the relevant languages and include contact information for the designated compliance coordinator. Schools are also encouraged to provide instruction that helps students understand the importance of civil rights laws and to take proactive steps to prevent discrimination.
