California SB303 mandates bias mitigation training for employees and protects good-faith participation from being considered unlawful discrimination.

California SB303 adds Section 12940.2 to the Government Code, requiring employers to provide bias mitigation training. This training includes strategies such as personal bias assessment, workshops, and toolkits. The bill ensures that employees' good-faith participation in these activities, including acknowledging personal bias, does not constitute unlawful discrimination. The intent is to encourage bias mitigation training without fear of discrimination claims.
