Colorado Adds Protections for Living Organ Donors

08/01/24

Author: ADP Admin/Monday, July 29, 2024/Categories: Compliance Corner

Colorado has enacted legislation that prohibits employers from taking adverse action against an employee because they are a living organ donor. The law (House Bill 24-1132) became effective immediately on June 3, 2024.

The Details

House Bill 24-1132 prohibits employers from intimidating, threatening, coercing, discriminating, or retaliating against or taking an adverse action against an employee because they are a living organ donor.


If the employer takes adverse action against an employee during the period extending 30 days before and 90 days after the employee is or becomes a living organ donor, the employer will be presumed to have violated the law unless they can show they took the employment action for a lawful reason.

Next Steps

Colorado employers should:

  • Review policies and procedures to ensure compliance with House Bill 24-1132.
  • Train supervisors on the new law.
