California Employment Law Update: Sex and Gender Protections in California Workplaces

Description:
It is no secret that California employment laws tend to be more protective of employees than federal employment laws.

From expanded regulations on sexual harassment to the treatment of gender as non-binary, California continues to strengthen legal protections that differ from federal enforcement priorities. This webinar will explore these competing compliance obligations and discuss how to navigate them.

Gregory S. Hudson and Colleen Foster will present the Cozen O'Connor webinar titled 2025 Year in Review of Bad Faith Cases and Beyond. This program will review key 2025 trends in bad faith claims across multiple jurisdictions, with a particular focus on nuclear and excessive verdicts arising from alleged insurer misconduct.
The presenters will examine how courts have addressed bad faith claims, highlight verdicts that have held insurers liable for improper practices, and provide real‑world insight into the growing trend of nuclear verdicts. They will also discuss how these outcomes are influencing the way insurers handle claims and litigation to reduce bad faith exposure.
