What pregnancy disability leave notices and information do I have to give an employee?

Employers must provide the employee with the state disability insurance (SDI) brochure and a copy of the pregnancy disability leave (PDL) notice. The PDL notice must be given to the employee as soon as practicable after the employee tells you of their pregnancy, or sooner if they inquire about reasonable accommodation, transfer or PDL.

In addition to giving the employee the SDI brochure and the PDL notice, employers must also post the PDL notice on its premises in a conspicuous location. The PDL notice is available for purchase as part of the California and Federal Employment Notices poster available at the CalChamber Store.
