Colorado Legislature’s Changes to the Employment Landscape in 2023
2023 saw Colorado’s legislature pass a series of new employment laws that have continued to shore up employee-friendly laws across the state. These include changes to the Colorado Equal Pay for Equal Work Act (CEPEWA), the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act, the Colorado Healthy Families and Workplace Act (CHFWA), and the Colorado Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) Act. As a result of these changes, Colorado employers should take a look at their employment policies, agreements, handbooks, and other employment-related documents to ensure compliance with new laws and regulations. While we will not cover all of the changes here, we will review a couple of key changes.
