requiring disclosure of complaints to public employees within 5 business days.
HB 1150 requires public employers in New Hampshire to provide written notice to employees within 5 business days of receiving a complaint against them, including the complaint text and complainant identity unless specific exceptions apply. It directly affects public employees who face formal complaints and their employers. Key exceptions include situations where disclosure would violate whistleblower protections, endanger safety, interfere with investigations, involve sensitive matters like sexual harassment, or relate to anonymous complaints. Employers who fail to comply face civil fines enforced by the Department of Labor. The bill aims to increase transparency while balancing legal and safety constraints.
