Under Labor Code section 973, if an employer in California advertises an employment opportunity during an active strike, lockout, or other labor disturbances, the employer must plainly and explicitly disclose in the advertisement that a strike, lockout, or other labor disturbances exist.
This requirement ensures that potential applicants are fully informed about the labor situation surrounding the job they're applying for. By disclosing these circumstances upfront, employers adhere to fair labor practices and empower job seekers to make informed decisions. It fosters transparency and prevents misunderstandings between employers and potential employees, especially about the employer’s compensation practices and working conditions.
