NV AB434

Employers are prohibited from discharging, disciplining, retaliating, or taking adverse employment actions against employees who decline to attend employer-sponsored meetings or communications primarily intended to convey the employer's opinions on religious or political matters.

Religious corporations, associations, or societies are exempt from restrictions on religious matter communications; employers are also exempt if an employee's declination substantially interferes with bona fide job performance or the working relationship.

Violating employers are liable for damages from adverse actions, punitive damages, full gross lost wages, and court costs plus reasonable attorney's fees.

Courts may award costs and attorney's fees to employers if an employee's lawsuit is determined to be brought without substantial justification.

Exemptions include legally required communications, job-necessary information, higher education academic programs, casual voluntary conversations, and requirements limited to managerial or supervisory employees.
