SUMMARY:AB 495 and the Family Preparedness Act
DESCRIPTION:This session provides an essential compliance briefing on Assembly Bill 495\, the Family Preparedness Plan Act\, which went into effect on January 1\, 2026. This legislation introduces strict operational and safety requirements for California public schools and licensed child daycare programs to protect families facing sudden separation due to immigration enforcement or unexpected emergencies. We will break down the law’s core mandates\, including the absolute prohibition on collecting student citizenship data\, the requirement to log law enforcement requests for immigration access\, and the mandatory adoption of updated state model policies. \n\nWhile the public school provisions do not legally bind private\, K-12 religious schools\, the daycare mandates explicitly apply to all licensed child care facilities and preschool programs\, regardless of religious affiliation. We will discuss critical risk-mitigation strategies for every ministry\, including the legal expansion of the Caregiver’s Authorization Affidavit for temporary enrollment and medical decisions\, and best practices for implementing advanced emergency contact protocols.

SUMMARY:Work Classifications & Wage and Hour Laws
DESCRIPTION:This session dives deep into the operational complexities of employee classifications and everyday wage-and-hour laws. We will move beyond basic definitions to dissect the rigorous legal tests used to justify exempt versus non-exempt status. Additionally\, we will cover the essential wage-and-hour landmines that every ministry must navigate\, including strict California meal and rest break requirements\, daily versus weekly overtime calculations\, the realities of “comp time\,” and the hidden costs of split-shift premiums and reporting time pay rules. We will also address critical compliance traps unique to the non-profit sector\, including the strict boundaries surrounding hourly employees who wish to volunteer their time.

SUMMARY:Pay Data Reporting and 2026 Compensation Compliance
DESCRIPTION:This session will break down the sweeping changes introduced by Senate Bill 464\, which transforms annual pay data obligations for employers with 100 or more employees into a system of strict liability with mandatory civil penalties. We will guide covered employers through the immediate operational requirements\, including the mandatory separate storage of employee demographic data from standard personnel files and the upcoming transition to 23 highly specific Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) groups. \nFollowing this update\, we will pivot to a critical discussion on workers’ compensation audits and the financial risks of worker misclassification. We will explain the strategic importance of correctly distinguishing between employees and independent contractors\, and how a single misclassified worker can inadvertently end up on your workers’ compensation payroll audit\, leading to unexpected premium hikes and retroactive penalties. Whether you are a large organization navigating new state reporting or a smaller ministry looking to safeguard your budget\, this session will equip your team with the compliance tools needed to protect your operations and keep your insurance premiums secure.

SUMMARY:Employee Discipline\, Documentation\, and Termination
DESCRIPTION:Managing employee discipline and termination is one of the most challenging aspects of ministry leadership\, requiring a careful balance of accountability and grace. This session will provide a comprehensive guide to navigating these difficult moments with integrity and clarity. We will focus on the power of thorough documentation and the importance of setting clear expectations from the very beginning of the employment relationship. When these foundational efforts do not lead to the necessary changes\, we will discuss how to move toward a respectful and compliant termination.

SUMMARY:Navigating the Ministerial Exception in 2026
DESCRIPTION:The ministerial exception doctrine remains a cornerstone of religious autonomy\, yet recent rulings have shifted the landscape of how it is applied. During this webinar\, we will explore how courts are moving past job titles to focus on the vital religious functions of your staff members. We will discuss significant recent decisions from the Ninth Circuit that clarify protections for faith-based hiring while also addressing the limits of the doctrine in areas like wage and hour compliance. Our team will provide practical guidance on how to document your organization’s religious mission within your job descriptions and handbooks to ensure your employment decisions are secure.
