The California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA) will substantially expand the privacy and information security obligations of most employers doing business in California. This new and comprehensive legal framework will apply to the personal information of California residents who are employees, job applicants, independent contractors, and board members, as well as employees’ dependents who receive benefits through the employer (collectively, “HR Individuals”). In a marked departure from previous U.S. laws related to the data of HR Individuals, the CPRA creates a comprehensive data protection regime similar to data protection laws in many other parts of the world, such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation.
This dramatic expansion of employers’ data obligations will go into effect on January 1, 2023, and will require significant changes to existing policies, procedures, and practices for handling HR Individuals’ personal information. While the compliance deadline may seem distant, most covered employers are likely to need much of this time to address the CPRA’s enhanced requirements. Additionally, the CPRA contains a 12-month lookback period for HR Individuals’ requests to exercise their new rights to know how the company handles their personal information. This means that, commencing January 1, 2022, employers should begin preparing their human resources data so that they can respond to employees’ CPRA rights requests.
