As the start of 2025 has already shown with the destructive Los Angeles wildfires, the impact of climate change on businesses and homes can be devastating. Many owners and construction contractors were already grappling with the significant damage caused by a very active 2024 Atlantic hurricane season in Florida and the Southeast, and concerns about what the coming years will bring are at the forefront of their minds.

Several new laws approved by the Illinois General Assembly and signed into law this year by Governor JB Pritzker are aimed at protecting and expanding the rights of employees in the state.  The new measures’ effect will also be felt by employers, who will likely need to examine their policies and practices in the new year.
