As an employee, you have the right to certain privacy protections. You shouldn't need to unnecessarily disclose medical information to an employer, and your confidential medical details should generally be safe and private when you do have to provide them. A breach of medical confidentiality in the workplace could give rise to legal claims.  If you think your employer has violated your medical confidentiality rights, consulting employment attorneys can help you understand your legal options. 

If your employer has created intolerable working conditions, you may feel like you are caught between a rock and a hard place. You want to leave your job and find a better place of employment, but you worry that quitting will cost you your legal rights. 

The California WARN Act requires employers to provide reasonable notice to workers before mass layoffs. In January 2026, Senate Bill 617 went into effect, expanding the notifications employers must provide under the WARN Act.  If you are facing a layoff in California in 2026, your employer must adhere to the new provisions under SB 617. Failure to do so could leave them liable for your damages.  Here is what you need to know about SB 617.
