Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill requires healthcare employers to conduct annual risk assessments for workplace violence and implement prevention programs, including employee training and reporting systems. It also allows employees who are victims of assault in the line of duty to take paid leave for medical treatment, legal assistance, or court appearances. Additionally, the bill allows certain healthcare workers to use their workplace or union address instead of their home address when filing assault complaints and requires a report on improving collaboration between healthcare facilities and law enforcement for patients with mental health needs.
