Can I skip training employees on CCPA compliance in Rhode Island? What are the requirements?

CCPA Compliance Training Requirements in Rhode Island

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), businesses that collect personal information from California residents are required to provide training to employees who handle such information. However, Rhode Island does not have a similar law in place.

Rhode Island Women’s Equity Incentive Act of 2023

The Rhode Island Women’s Equity Incentive Act of 2023 offers tax credits up to $3,500 per employee per year to eligible businesses. However, this act does not relate to CCPA compliance training requirements.

Therefore, as Rhode Island does not have a law mandating CCPA compliance training, it is up to the discretion of the business whether or not to provide such training to employees.
