AB 1163: Employees: workplace violence prevention plans: topics and trainings.

The bill aims to improve workplace violence prevention in schools and community colleges. It requires local educational agencies to develop and implement deescalation training for employees who interact with students, making it publicly available on the internet. The training must be in-person and allow for questions to be asked in real-time. Workplace violence prevention plans must cover additional education-related topics and be revised to include deescalation techniques. The plans must be in place by a certain deadline and training must be provided to all employees, including new hires and existing staff. The state will reimburse local agencies and school districts for costs associated with implementing the bill.
