Newly enacted Illinois laws immediately prohibit employers from using criminal convictions in hiring except in specific situations. Beginning in 2023, the new laws also will require large employers to submit EEO-1 data with their corporate annual reports, and in 2024 will require them to file wage disclosures and compliance certificates with the Illinois Department of Labor. Some of the broadest protections for whistleblowers in the country became effective March 23.
