AND.
THE POSITION ON THE FELT SO.
GO AHEAD.
GOOD MORNING MY NAME IS MEG
YARDLEY I LIVE IN OAKLAND AND I
BECAME A MEMBER OF HAND IN HAND
SEVEN YEARS AGO WHEN MY PARTNER
AND I STARTED PLAYING A NANNY TO
TAKE CARE OF OUR FIRST CHILD.
HADN'T OF THOSE NATIONAL NETWORK
OF DOMESTIC EMPLOYERS INCLUDING
PARENTS WHO EMPLOY NANNIES.
SENIORS AND PEOPLE WITH
DISABILITIES TO APPLY HOME CARE
ATTENDANTS. AND HOUSEHOLDS
EMPLOYEE HOUSECLEANERS AND WE
WORK TOWARD DIGNIFIED WORKING
CONDITIONS THAT BENEFIT WORKERS
AND EMPLOYERS ALIKE.
SO I'M HERE TODAY IN SUPPORT OF
AB 23-14 BECAUSE I'VE
EXPERIENCED FIRST HAND IN MY
LIFE THE VALUE IN THE DIGNITY OF
DOMESTIC WORK.
NEOVIA THAN ANY WHO WORKED FOR
US TOOK CARE OF MY FIRST CHILD
FOR TWO YEARS AND THEN MY SECOND
CHILD FOR THREE YEARS.
I FELT REALLY FORTUNATE TO LEAVE
MY CHILDREN IN THE CARE OF
SOMEONE WHO WAS SO LOVING SO
SKILLED AT TAKING CARE OF YOUNG
CHILDREN AT SUCH AN AMAZING
EMPLOYEE.
RECENTLY W. INTERVIEWED WITH A
FAMILY FOR A NEW JOB AND WHEN
THE PARENT CALLED ME AS A
REFERENCE SHE WAS VERY EXCITED
SUCH WAS READY TO HIRE NUBIA
IMMEDIATELY.
SO I ASKED HER DO YOU WANT ME TO
GIVE BECAUSE OF MY WORK HAND IN
HAND I SAID YOU WANT ME TO GIVE%
YOU ANY INFORMATION ABOUT
BECOMING AN EMPLOYER LIKE WHAT
ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES YOU
KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO AS AN
EMPLOYER.
AND SHE SIGHED WITH RELIEF ALL
THAT WOULD BE GREAT WE HAVEN'T
REALLY LOOKED INTO THAT YET.
THE FIRST I WAS REALLY SHOCKED
THAT SHE WAS ABOUT TO MAKE
SOMEONE A JOB OFFER OF THE FULL
TIME EMPLOYMENT WITHOUT EVEN
BEING AWARE OF THE WORKING
CONDITIONS THAT SHE WAS OFFERING.
BUT THEN I REMEMBERED HOW IT WAS
BEING IT OVERWHELMS NEW PARENT
THAT HAD NEVER EMPLOYED ANYBODY
BEFORE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW
CARE AND RETURN TO WORK.
AND I KNOW FROM MY EXPERIENCE
WITH HANDED HIM LEADING
WORKSHOPS WITH NEW PARENTS OF
THIS IS A REALLY COMMON
SITUATION. AND AN EXAMPLE OF WHY
AB 23-14 IS SO CRITICALLY NEEDED.
IN CALIFORNIA. TWO MILLION
HOUSEHOLDS RELY ON DOMESTIC WORK.
MOST EMPLOYERS WHO EMPLOY
SOMEONE THERE HOME LIKE THE PART
THAT I SPOKE WITH THE YOU THE
CONTRIBUTIONS THAT DOMESTIC
WORKERS MAKE TO THEIR HOMES IN
THEIR LIVES. BUT THEY OFTEN
DON'T UNDERSTAND THEIR
RESPONSIBILITIES AS EMPLOYERS
AND DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO FOR
HELP OR FOR GUIDANCE.
BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF GUIDANCE
AND CLEAR STANDARDS THERE'S A
WHOLE RANGE OF PRACTICES IN THE
INDUSTRY SOME PEOPLE WHO ARE
VERY FAIR WHERE EVEN GENEROUS.
AND OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE VERY
EXPLOITED AS LIKE THE STORY THAT
WE JUST HEARD.
SO I SOMEBODY WHO HAS EMPLOYED A
DOMESTIC WORKER I'M HERE TO TELL
YOU THAT AB 23-14. WILL PROVIDE
VITAL RESOURCES AND TOOLS TO
EMPLOYERS WHO WANT TO UPHOLD
FAIRNESS AND DIGNIFY LABOR
STANDARDS IN THEIR HOMES.
SO BECAUSE DOMESTIC WORK TAKES
PLACE AN INDIVIDUAL HOMES. IT
HAS OFEN BEEN INVISIBLE AND
THERE ARE A LOT OF VIOLATIONS OF
WORKPLACE RIGHTS.
BUT THANKS TO AB 23-14 WE HAVE A
CHANCE TO BRING THIS IMPORTANT
LABOR OUT OF THE SHADOWS. AND TO
HONOR THE DIGNITY OF DOMESTIC.

REALLY SERIOUSNESS AB EIGHTEEN.
FIFTY SEVEN.
WELCOME.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS.
I WOULD LIKE TO START OFF BY
THANKING THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR
ALL THE WORK THEY PUT INTO THIS
BILL AND BY ACCEPTING.
THE RECOMMENDED AMENDMENTS
LOCATED IN THE COMMITTEE
ANALYSIS
THESE AMENDMENTS ADDRESS
CONCERNS RAISED REGARDING THE
TEN YEAR RECORD RETENTION.
ACQUIREMENT
AND THAT IS CURRENTLY IN THE
BILL.
AS AMENDED A. B. EIGHTEEN SIXTY
SEVEN TO TRACK ACT.
WOULD REQUIRE THAT EMPLOYERS
WITH FIFTY OR MORE EMPLOYEES
ATTAIN EMPLOYEE COMPLAINTS
FATHER THE INTERNAL COMPLAINT
PROCESS OF THE EMPLOYER. FOR A
PERIOD OF FIVE NO LESS THAN FIVE
YEARS AFTER THE DATE OF
TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
AS YOU KNOW THE RULES
SUBCOMMITTEE ON HARASSMENT.
SCREAMING NATION AND RETALIATION
PREVENTION AND RESPONSE.
WAS CREATED TO MAKE YOU SERIOUS
AND COMPREHENSIVE EFFORTS TO
REFORM THE ASSEMBLY IS
HARASSMENT POLICIES PROCEDURES
AND TRAINING.
AT THE NOVEMBER TWENTY EIGHTH
TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN HEARING.
OF THIS RULES COMMITTEE.
ONE OF THE KEY TAKEAWAYS WAS
THAT EXISTING LAW DOESN'T
REQUIRE EMPLOYERS TO RETAIN
RECORDS.
OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT
POINTS.
EXISTING LAW LEAVES RETENTION OF
THESE ROCK TYPES OF RECORDS TO
THE TO THE EMPLOYER'S DISCRETION
AND INTERNAL POLICIES.
THE GOVERNMENT CODE REQUIRES
EMPLOYERS TAKE
QUOTE.
ALL REASONABLE STEPS NECESSARY
TO PREVENT DISCRIMINATION AND
ROUSE MEANT FROM OCCURRING.
AND QUOTE NOT MAINTAINING
RECORDS OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT
COMPLAINTS
IT'S BOTH EMPLOYERS AND
EMPLOYEES AT RISK
AN IMPORTANT COMPONENT OF
ADDRESSING THE PREVENTING SEXUAL
MISCONDUCT IS HAVING RECORDS.
OF TODAY.
BUT HAVING RECORDS TO DETERMINE
WHETHER THERE ARE REPEAT
OFFENDERS AND WHETHER THE
EMPLOYER TOOK APPROPRIATE
CORRECTIVE. ACTION.
FOR PARTICULARLY LARGE
CORPORATIONS OR COMPANIES A
FAILURE TO MAINTAIN RECORDS
COULD LEAD TO A PERPETRATOR
SIMPLY BEING ABLE TO CHANGE
LOCATIONS.
START ALL OVER AGAIN.
FOR ANYONE BOTH THE VICTIM AND
THE ACCUSED WE HAVE TO FOLLOW
DUE PROCESS
BUT WE MUST BE FAIR TO OUR
VICTIMS.
IF THE BEHAVIOR HAS BEEN THERE
IN THE PAST AND IT IS NOT BEING
DOCUMENTED PROPERLY THE BEHAVIOR
COULD BECOME A PROBLEM FOR
FUTURE EMPLOYEES. AND CREATE A
CULTURE LACKING TRANSPARENCY AND
PROTECTION.
IT IS CRUCIAL THAT WE HAVE
ENOUGH DOCUMENTATION SO WE CAN
REVIEW THAT BEHAVIOR.
HERE TO TESTIFY IN SUPPORT OF
THE BILL. OR MANDY J. BENSON
WITH MJ BAIT BENSON CONSULTING.
SPECIALIZES IN SEXUAL
HARASSMENT PREVENTION TRAINING.
AND MARIE GO YOSHIHARA.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL POLICY
DIRECTOR WITH CALIFORNIA
EMPLOYMENT LAWYERS ASSOCIATION.
WHAT IS OF THE PARK?
PARDON ME FOR A.
YEAH.
THEY GET SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME
HERE TODAY AMENDED BENSON AND AS
A WOMAN AND A SEXUAL HARASSMENT
SURVIVOR AND AS AN HR.
PROFESSIONAL AND SEXUAL
HARASSMENT PREVENTION SPECIALIST
I SUPPORT EIGHTEEN SIXTY SEVEN
A. B. EIGHTEEN SIXTY SEVEN.
AT TWENTY TWO YEARS OLD I BEGAN
WORKING AT CLAIM JUMPER ENOUGH
THAT TIME CLINTON WAS A FAIRLY
NEW RESTAURANT. THE WEIGHTS FOR
TWO HOURS LONG TO GET IN AND
EVERYBODY WANTED TO EAT THERE
AND EVERYBODY WANTED TO WORK
THERE.
NOT EVERYBODY THAT WANTED TO BE
A SERVER WANTED TO WORK THERE.
I BECAME A TOP SERVER RIGHT
AWAY I HAD OF A GROUP OF
REGULARS THAT WOULD ALWAYS ASK
TO SET MY SECTION ONE POSSIBLE.
AND EVERYTHING WAS GOING PRETTY
GOOD IN THOSE INITIAL WEEKS OF
WORKING THERE.
.
AND TELL SOME ANONYMOUS FLOWERS
START SHOWING UP AND AND ABOUT
ONCE A WEEK ANOTHER BATCH OF
ANONYMOUS FLOWERS WHICH SHOW UP
AND I HAD A BOYFRIEND AND. THE
FLOWERS ENDING TYPE SO I THOUGHT
THAT WAS PRETTY STRANGE ACERCA
ASKING AROUND LIKE WITH THESE
FLOWERS COMING FRON AND ANOTHER
SERVER TOLD ME SHE KINDA PULLED
ME ASIDE AND SHE'S LIKE IT'S
CONTENT.
MIKE REALLY WHY HE'S A NICE GUY
BUT HE DOESN'T SEEM LIKE HE'S
YOU KNOW ENEMY YOU LIKE I DON'T
KNOW THIS IS IS POWDERED. LET ME
TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN
AND SHE WALKED ME THROUGH THE
SITUATION.
SHE SAID THAT HE DID THIS TO ALL
THE NEW GIRLS AND THAT AT FIRST
IT WOULD COME THE FLOWERS AND
THEN I POLITELY LET HIM KNOW I
WASN'T INTERESTED. AND AT FIRST
HE KINDA BE OKAY BUT THEN YOU
KEEP PUSHING AND SEND MORE
FLOWERS
THEN I GO BACK AND I'D SAY.
I'M REALLY OT INTERESTED IN YOU
NEED TO STOP AND THIS WOULD MAKE
HIM MAD SHE TOLD ME.
THE MY FOOD IT'S ARE COMING ON
THE KITCHEN REALLY SLOW SO MY
TABLES WOULD ALREADY BEHIND IN A
REST ON THE PEOPLE ARE ALREADY
FRUSTRATED THAT THEY'D BEEN
THERE FOR SO LONG WAITING.
TO GET THEIR FOOD.
AND THEN THE PASSERS WOULD STOP
BUSING MY TABLES BECAUSE AL
REPORTED UP TO THE KITCHEN
MANAGER.
AND THEN THEY WOULD STOP
SPEAKING TO ME IN ENGLISH.
AND SHE WAS RIGHT THIS IS
EXACTLY HOW IT ALL PLAYED OUT.
MY CUSTOMERS ARE HAPPY THEY STOP
REQUESTING MY TABLES AND MY
TEMPS DROPPED IN HALF.
I PUT IT THIS IN A VERY FORMAL
MEETING WITH TO OF THE MANAGERS
OF COURSE THEIR BUT MAN THEY
WERE THE TWO OUT FRONT OF THE
HOUSE MANAGERS AND THE HEAD
WAITRESS WAS THE ONLY WOMAN IN A
POSITION OF ANY KIND OF POWER.
SENATE WITH ALL FOUR OF THEM AND
DOES THEY PRETTY MUCH A SHOT AND
NOBODY WANTS TO DO HE'S JUST
BEING NICE THIS ISN'T SEXUAL
HARASSMENT. AND I HAD TO EXPLAIN
TO THEM WHAT RETALIATION WISE
AND THAT THE WAY I HAD BEEN
TREATED SENSE I'D REJECTED HIS
ADVANCES WAS INDEED SEXUAL
HARASSMENT AND RETALIATION.
THEY REFUSE TO TAKE ANY ACTION
SO I QUIT LIKELY I WAS
GRADUATING FROM COLLEGE AND I
MOVED ON TO DOING OTHER THINGS.
NOW I'M RUNNING MJ BENSON
CONSULTING TO PROVIDE SEXUAL
HARASSMENT PREVENTION TRAININGS
POLICY DEVELOPMENT
INVESTIGATIONS ARE AND HELPING
FOLKS IN A ONE ON ONE CAPACITY
WHO HAVE BEEN ON. EXHIBITING
SEXUAL HARASSMENT BEHAVIOR AND
HELP THEM TO UNDERSTAND THEIR
BEHAVIOR HOW TO REMEDY IT AND
HOW TO BE.
APPROPRIATE IN THE WORKPLACE.
I'M ALSO A FOUNDING MEMBER OF AN
ORGANIZATION CALLED WORK EQUITY
THOUGHT HAS JUST SPRUNG UP OVER
THE LAST FEW MONTHS TO HELP GIVE
SURVIVORS OF VOICE IN THE WORK
THAT WE'RE DOING TO TRY TO
PREVENT SEXUAL HARASSMENT.
I SUPPORT AB EIGHTEEN SIXTY
SEVEN BECAUSE HARASSERS LIKE
THIS MANAGER CAN HIDE AND A
REALLY BIG COMPANY.
THEY CAN HIDE BY CHANGING
POSITIONS OR LOCATIONS AND WHEN
THOSE H. R. FILES WHEN THE
SEXUAL HARASSMENT DETAILS DON'T
FOLLOW THEM THAT'S PROBLEMATIC.
THAT HISTORY DIDN'T FOLLOW HIM
HE HAD BEEN AT NUMEROUS
LOCATIONS OF.
CLAIM JUMPER AND HAD NUMEROUS
ON MEETINGS LIKE THIS HAD OUR
REPORTS LIKE MINE HAD GONE ON
FILED AND ON.
.
RECORDED.
WHEN HR OR SUPERVISORS LEAVE UP
COMPANIES SOMETIMES THAT HISTORY
OF WHAT'S GONE ON LEAVE WITH
THEM AND THERE MAY BE NO ONE
EXCEPT THE VICTIM AWARE OF THE
PATTERN OF SEXUAL. MISCONDUCT.
THIS BILL WOULD HELP MY CLIENTS
RIGHT NOW.
AS WELL AS THE WOMEN THAT WERE
WORKING WITH AT WORK EQUITY.
TO NOT ONLY PRIORITIZE BUT TO
JUSTIFY THE NET AND NATIONAL
TIME EXPENSE THAT IT TAKES FOR
AN HR DEPARTMENT TO PUT IN PLACE
A PROPER TRACKING SYSTEM MOST HR
MANAGERS WOULD TELL YOU WHAT
THEY WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THAT.
BUT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN GIVEN THE
BUDGET AND THEY'RE NOT SERVE
ALLOW THE TIME TO PUT THE SIMPLE
PROCESS IN PLACE IN THE FIRST
PLACE SO THIS BILL WOULD MANDATE
THAT AND I THINK THAT MOST HR
PROFESSIONALS WOULD TELL YOU
THAT WOULD APPRECIATE THAT.
WITH SAY SO MUCH MONEY IN THE
LONG RUN. BY TRULY FULFILLING
THEIR DUTY TO STOP AND PREVENT
SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND ACTUALLY
HELP HARASSERS AVOID THESE
CHRONIC REPEAT OFFENDERS SO I
ASK YOU TO PLEASE SUPPORT AB
EIGHTEEN SIX
SEVEN. THANK YOU.
ADDITIONAL WITNESSES.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR MISTER
VICE CHAIR AMERICA YOSHIHARA
WITH THE CALIFORNIA PLUMMET
LAWYERS ASSOCIATION.
SO OUR JOURNEYS FIND THAT IT'S
PRETTY COMMON IN WORKPLACES
WHERE THERE'S PERVASIVE SEXUAL
MISCONDUCT HARASSMENT
DISCRIMINATION THAT THESE
EMPLOYERS DO NOT HAVE A CLEAR
RECORD RETENTION POLICY THEY'RE
NOT ADEQUATELY TRACKING
COMPLAINS. USUALLY WHEN THERE'S
NO RECORD THIS MEANS THAT THE
EMPLOYERS ARE USUALLY TRYING TO
RESOLVE THESE COMPLAINTS MORE
INFORMALLY THERE'S NO FORMAL
INVESTIGATION. AND THIS IS ONE
HARASSMENT DISCRIMINATION IS
REALLY ABLE TO THRIVE.
WHEN THE.
THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS EMPLOYEE
DOESN'T FEEL LIKE THEY'RE
COMPLAIN IS BEING HEARD. ON THE
FOR THE HARASSER IT THERE'S NO
TRUE ACCOUNTABILITY. OFTENTIMES
THE HARASSER FEEL THAT THEY CAN
CONTINUE AM NOT HARASSING
CONDUCT WITH NO REAL CONSEQUENCE.
AND ASSEMBLY MEMBER IS POINTED
OUT AND MANDY ON IT MAKES IT
VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO TRACK
WHEN THERE ARE REPEAT OFFENDERS
WE'VE HEARD OF A LOT OF CASES
ARE ATTORNEYS HAVE HEARD OF A
LOT OF CASES. CASES LIKE MANDY
IS WHERE YOU HAVE REPEATED.
A LOT OF COMPLAINTS OF SEXUAL
HARASSMENT AGAINST THE SAME
PERSON BUT BECAUSE THERE WAS NO
TRACKING THERE'S NO COORDINATION
OF THE COMPLAINTS THAT. THAT
CONDUCT WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE IN
OFTENTIMES ESCALATE. ON AND THE
FOR EMPLOYMENT HOUSING ON DOES
REQUIRE THAT EMPLOYERS TAKE ALL
REASONABLE STEPS TO PREVENT
HARASSMENT FROM OCCURRING AND SO
THIS NEEDS TO BE WELL DOCUMENTED
IF WE'RE GOING TO HOLD EMPLOYERS
ACCOUNTABLE TO YOU. IS VERY
IMPORTANT TO DO THAT THEY HAVE
TO THEIR EMPLOYEES AND ON TOP OF
THAT IF A LAWSUIT IS FILED YOU
WANNA HAVE THAT REAL TIME
DOCUMENTATION OF WHAT HAPPENED.
AS OPPOSED TO HAVING TO RELY ON
THE MEMORIES OF THE PEOPLE WHO
ARE INVOLVED.
THAT HAPPENED YEARS AGO ON.
SO FOR THESE REASONS WE THINK
REQUIRING STRONGER STRONGER
RECORD RETENTION POLICIES. IS AN
IMPORTANT STRATEGY TO ADDRESSING
SEXUAL HARASSMENT THE WORKPLACE
AND SO FOR THESE REASONS WE
STRONGLY URGE YOUR SUPPORT.
THANK YOU ADDITIONAL WITNESSES
REPORT HAS COME FORWARD.
JACKIE SAN ON BEHALF OF THE
CONSUMER ATTORNEYS OF
CALIFORNIANS SUPPORT.
HELLO LOPEZ ON BEHALF OF WORK
EQUITY IN SUPPORT.
WHEN THIS IS IN OPPOSITION
.
WELCOME.
GOOD MORNING THANK YOU AT.
WORKERS ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
FIRST OF ALL I DO WANNA SAY THAT
WE OBVIOUSLY SYMPATHIZE WITH THE
ISSUES WITH THE BILL SEXUAL
HARASSMENT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT
ANY EMPLOYER WANTS IN THE
WORKPLACE. AND NOT ONLY FOR THE
HUMAN ASPECT BUT ALSO FOR THE
LIABILITY OUT OUR CONCERNS WITH
THE BILL WHICH WE HAVE EXPRESSED
TO THE OTHERS OFFICE IS THAT
THERE ARE CURRENTLY SEVEN LAWS.
THAT AND HAVE DIFFERENT
DOCUMENTATION RETENTION
REQUIREMENTS FOR CALIFORNIA
EMPLOYERS BETWEEN FEDERAL ON
CALIFORNIA LAW SO WE'RE ASKING
THAT THE DOCUMENTATION RETENTION
BE LIMITED TO THREE YEARS PLUS
THE TERROR AND THE DURATION OF
EMPLOYMENT. THAT WAY IT'S MORE
CONSISTENT WITH THE VAST
MAJORITY OF DOCUMENTATION
REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY
REQUIRED UNDER LAW. OF WE ARE
ADDITIONALLY THE EMPLOYERS CAN
BARELY KEEP UP WITH ALL OF THESE
REQUIREMENTS I CAN BARELY KEEP
UP WITH THE LABOR LAWS IN THE D.
FE H. LAWS THAT ARE GOING ON.
AND BECAUSE OUR EMPLOYERS ARE
EMPLOYERS OF ALL SIZES AND BUT
FINALLY THE TERM OF EMPLOYMENT
ALSO WITH THIS BILL IS A CONCERN
FOR EMPLOYERS BECAUSE THERE'S NO
AND ACTUAL DEFINITION OF
COMPLETE. SO IF SOMEONE SAYS SO
AND SO I ACCIDENTALLY BRUSHED UP
AGAINST ME IN AN ELEVATOR WHEELS
AT A FORMAL COMPLAINT SOME
ATTACKS ARE MANAGER INTO SOMEONE
SOLD A REALLY FUNNY KNOCK KNOCK
JOKE. WELL IS THAT A SEXUAL
HARASSMENT COMPLAINT DOING
NINETY TO PRINT OFF THIS TEXT
MESSAGES AND KEEP THAT SO WE
JUST LIKE SOME CLARIFICATION
THAT IT'S A COMPLAINT THAT
TRIGGERS AN INVESTIGATION FOR
THE PURPOSES OF SEXUAL
HARASSMENT. AND DAD THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO
CHECK THANK YOU.
I'M MISTER CHAIR CHRIS MCKAY WE
ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
BUILT ASSOCIATION AND I SHARE
MISS CURTIS'S.
COMMENTS AND WE DO THINK THE
AUTHOR AS WELL FOR. A MEETING
WITH US WE.
WOULD LIKE TO CLAIM PARTIAL
CREDIT FOR. THE AMENDMENTS.
THAT THERE WERE IT NOT BEEN BUT
WE JUST LIKE THE MODIFY TO THE.
WE JUST WANT THAT FIVE TO GO TO
THREE.
IS MISS CURTIS INDICATED IN THE
DEFINITION OF COMPLAINT IN A IF
YOU IF THE AUTHOR WOULD BE
WILLING TO ADD AND TRIGGERS AN
INVESTIGATION.
TO PROVIDE CLEAR GUIDANCE TO
THE EMPLOYER COMMUNITY YOU KNOW
AS WE. LISTEN TO THE PROPONENTS
TESTIMONY I'M OFTEN REMINDED OF.
THE ISSUE OF GOOD ACTORS VERSUS
BAD ACTORS
AND CERTAINLY THERE. ARE BOTH
AND I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT
WE REPRESENT THOSE GOOD ACTORS
WHO ARE TRYING TO COMPLY WITH
THE LAWS.
AND TO EMPHASIZE MISS CURTIS'S
EARLIER POINT THE LEGISLATURE'S
ADOPTING ANYWHERE FROM SIXTY TO
SEVENTY FIVE NEW LABOR LAWS
EVERY SINGLE YEAR. AND SO THE
COMPLEXITY IS GROWING AND THE
NEED TO BE VERY CLEAR.
IT YOU KNOW FROM ALL INDICATIONS
THE LEGISLATURE IS GOING TO
ADOPT A BILL ALONG THESE LINES
MAKE IT AS CLEAR TO COMPLY WITH.
A FOR THE EMPLOYER COMMUNITY AS
POSSIBLE AND THAT'S ONE OF THE
IMPORTANT THINGS THAT WE ARE
SEEKING THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.

KIND OF A COMPLAINT DEFINITION.
AND.
CERTAINLY ONE THAT TRIGGERS AN
INVESTIGATION AS YOU KNOW.
ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN TORT
REFORM ORGANIZATION THEY CALL

MUCH LITIGATION ESPECIALLY WHEN.

FROM FRIVOLOUS LAWSUITS.
I WILL TELL YOU.
.
THE VICE CHAIR THAT WE HAVE HAD
NUMEROUS.
MEETINGS AND WE'VE WORKED ON
TRYING TO PUT THE LANGUAGE SO
THAT. IT.
TEX
THE VICTIMS
WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT THE
VICTIMS ARE PROTECTED WE ALSO
WANT OUR BUSINESSES TO THRIVE.
I I'D LIKE TO ASK OWN MS.
CAPTION HARA.
TO TO RESPOND VERY SPECIFICALLY
BECAUSE THAT HAS BEEN AN AREA
THAT WE'VE DISCUSSED
I GREATLY.
WHICH OPENS.
AND I THINK THE MAIN PROBLEM
WITH THAT PROVISION AS I MEAN IF
YOU LOOK AT THE EEOC GUIDANCE IT
SAYS ALL COMPLAINTS MUST
BE INVESTIGATED SO THERE ARE
IDEA I MEAN THAT. ALSO SPEAKS TO
THE.
FAIR EMPLOYMENT HOUSING ACTS
DUTY TO PROVIDE TAKE ALL
REASONABLE STEPS TO PREVENT
HARASSMENT FROM OCCURRING.
SO YOU COULD IF YOU HARM THAT
LANGUAGE A SAYS THAT TRIGGERS AN
INVESTIGATION YOU KEPT YOU COULD
HAVE EMPLOYERS WHO MAYBE AREN'T
FOLLOWING THAT DUTY TO
INVESTIGATE. AND SO NOW THEY'RE
NOT INVESTIGATING AND THEY'RE
NOT.
RECORDING.
WHAT HAPPENED AND SO?
WHILE I MEAN WE THINK THAT
COMPLAIN IS PRETTY IS ALREADY
WELL DEFINED IN THE REGULATIONS.
AND CASE LAW.
AND SO THIS DUTY TO UNIFY
TRIGGERS AN INVESTIGATION I
THINK IT JUST OPENS UP THE DOOR
FOR THOSE EMPLOYERS THAT AREN'T
DOING THEIR DUTY OF
INVESTIGATION TO NOW NOT. ALSO
TO ALSO NOT BE RECORDING AND THE
COMPLAINTS EITHER.
SO THAT'S A PROBLEM WE SEEN.
INFAMY SO.
IF THERE'S AN INCIDENT IN AN
ELEVATOR AND EMPLOYERS
NONCOMMITTAL ABOUT THE COMPLAINT
ARE NOT GONNA BE DOCUMENTING IT
SO KIND OF RIVER WORKS IN
REVERSE AS WELL WE WANNA MAKE
SURE THAT ALL THOSE LEGITIMATE
COMPLAINTS ARE IN FACT RECORDED.
SHARE BY SAYING THAT.
.
THERE'S AN INVESTIGATION IT PUTS
THE PLAYER ON NOTICE THAT HEY
THERE'S A PROBLEM IN THE
ELEVATOR YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
IT.
AND GOT A RETAIN THOSE RECORDS
FOR FOR FIVE YEARS.
SO IT JUST FURTHER DEFINES THE
ISSUE SO THAT EMPLOYERS ARE
PROTECTED AND IN FACT THE
EMPLOYEE IS PROTECTED BECAUSE I
KNOW FOR A FACT THAT ONCE THEY.
MAKE THE THE COMPLAIN TO THEIR
SUPERIORS THAT THERE IS A FACTOR
TO BE WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION OF
THE CITY.
DECIDE LATER THE PRASAT PURPOSES
PROCEED LEGALLY.
THE REPORT HAS TO BE MADE IT
INITIALLY THERE HAS TO BE A
REPORT. AT EVERY USE THE EXAMPLE
OF BRUSHING.
AGAINST SOMEONE IN AN ELEVATOR.
THERE ARE VERY MANY WAYS THAT
THAT CAN BE INTERPRETED BUT
SELECT THIS THE WAY THE VICTIM
DESCRIBES IT.
IT'S GOING TO BE THE MOST
IMPORTANT
THE THE THE PERPETRATOR ACTUALLY
HAS A RIGHT TO DEFEND HIMSELF OR
HERSELF.
AND TO GIVE THEIR SIDE OF OF.
THEIR INTERPRETATION OF WHAT HAS
HAPPENED.
BUT THE REORD WILL BE THERE SO
IF.
SO IT'S A MAN BRUSHING AGAINST
AGAINST A WOMAN AND HE DOES THIS
EVERY TIME HE GETS INTO THE
ELEVATOR WE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT
THAT. IF IT HAPPENS ONE TIME AND
HE SAID IT WAS A IT WAS AN
INNOCENT BRUSHING UP AGAINST.
OF SOMEONE ELSE WELL IF IT'S
GOING TO BE CLEAR IN THAT REPORT.
SO ITS IT'S THAT REPORT THAT DID
THE REPORT OF THE VICTIM THAT
WILL TRIGGER THE NECESSITY TO
KEEP THE RECORD.
THE RECORD MAY MEAN NOTHING IN
THE END.
BUT IF IT DOESN'T THERE IS A
PATTERN THAT VICTIM HAS A RIGHT
TO HAVE IT BE KNOWN THAT THERE
WAS A PATTERN.
THANK YOU FOR THE CUP FOR THE Q.
AND AGAIN I THINK WE'VE OUR YOU
KNOW WE WERE TRYING TO REACH A
COMPROMISE HERE AND I THINK.
THINK YOU FOR AGREEING ON THE
AMENDMENTS TO. DONE FOR FIVE

A. CALIFORNIA TRACKS OF HIGH
RATE OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING DUE TO
ITS STRONG ECONOMY LARGE
IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES AND CLOSE
PROXIMITY THE U. S. MEXICAN
BORDER. AT TWENTY TWELVE STUDY
CONDUCTED BY THE SAN DIEGO STATE
UNIVERSITY FOUND THAT RATES OF
LABOR TRAFFICKING OF IMMIGRANT
WORKERS IN THE PROPERTY SERVICE
INDUSTRY SUMMER ME CREEKTWO
QUICK WE'RE DOING TWENTY FOUR
NINETY SIX FOR YEAH YOU KNOW AND
I'M I'M GETTING THERE. OKAY I
KNOW I WAS ABOUT THE SAME THING
AS I WAS READING.
KEVIN WHAT'S GONNA.
YEAH THOSE LOOK THERE'S NOT A
LOT LIKE THE OTHER BUILDING.
ALRIGHT YOU HAVE THAT WE'RE
GETTING THERE YOU HAVE IT SO
TWENTY TWELVE.
XENA STATE DID A STUDY AND
CLEARLY WHEN THE BIGGEST
PROBLEMS IS WITH.
ARE JIM TWELVE WORKERS IN PART
RESEARCH.
I'M AND I WE HAVE WELL
DOCUMENTED. PROBLEMS IN THAT THE
BUSINESS COMMUNITY IN THAT
BUSINESS COMMUNITY THEY OFTEN
PREY ON IMMIGRANT WORKERS IN
THIS INDUSTRY. AT ONE OF THE
WAYS THEY VICTIMIZE THESE
WORKERS IS BY WITHHOLDING RIGHTS
THAT THEY DESERVE.
AND THEY DO THIS BY MS
CLASSIFYING THE WORKERS IN A PET
CONTRACTORS RATHER THAN
EMPLOYEES.
DOING SO RESULTS IN THE EMPLOYER
BEING FREE FROM LEGAL
OBLIGATIONS PERTAINING CAO FOR
HIS WAGE AND HOUR LAWS ANTI
DISCRIMINATION LAWS AS WELL
STATE FEDERAL REGULATIONS.
IT PREVENTS EMPLOYERS WILL BE
RESPONSIBLE AND PAY OVERTIME A
WORKERS COMPENSATION SO AB
TWENTY FOUR NINETY SIX A SIMPLE
ADDRESSES THE ISSUE BY CREATING
A REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION THAT
PROPERTY SERVICE WORKERS ARE
JANITORS EMPLOYEES.
WITH ME TODAY TO TESTIFY IN
SUPPORT IS DANIEL ROTHMAN FROM
THAT THAT DEPUTY DISTRICT
ATTORNEY FROM ALAMEDA COUNTY
DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE THANK
YOU GRANT.
GOOD MORNING THINK RILEY.
I MY NAME IS DAN REISMAN I'M A
DEPUTY DA WITH ALAMEDA COUNTY
I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF NANCY
O'MALLEY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
SUPPORT OF THIS
THE.
MY EXPERIENCE IN THE DA'S OFFICE
AND MY INTEREST IN THIS
PARTICULAR AREA.
STEMS FROM HAVING WORKED IN
WORKERS COMPENSATION INSURANCE
FRAUD. AND PROSECUTING THOSE
CRIMES AND.
THE CHANGES THAT THIS BILL
PROPOSES.
ARE BASED ON
THE REALITY THAT WE'VE ALREADY
SEEN.
USING THE EXISTING LANGUAGE OF
THIS PARTICULAR SECTION AND THE
LABOR CODE AND IN THE
UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE CODE. I'M
IN THE CONTRACTOR INDUSTRY WHAT
WE KNOW IS THAT BY CREATING THIS
PRESUMPTION IN THE CONTRACTING
INDUSTRY AROUND LICENSING WE
TAKE AN INDUSTRY IN WHICH
THERE'S A LOT OF ABUSE A LOT OF
CHEATING HAPPENING MOSTLY IN THE
CONTEXT OF. CALLING PEOPLE WHO
ARE NOT REALLY INDEPENDENT
CONTRACTORS INDEPENDENT
CONTRACTORS
BECAUSE THERE IS SO MUCH SUB
CONTRACTING IN LAYERS OF
SUBCONTRACTING.
AND SO WE WE INSTEAD PUT THE
QUESTION INITIAL QUESTION AT
LEAST ON. IS THE PERSON LICENSED
IF THE PERSON IS NOT LICENSED
LET'S STOP KIDDING OURSELVES AND
CALLING THEM INDEPENDENT
CONTRACTORS
WILL THE LAW THAT THAT.
PREVIOUSLY AUTHORED BY.
ASSEMBLY ROOM GONZALEZ FLETCHER.
WAS.
WAS PASSED A FEW YEARS AGO
GHOST EFFECT ON JULY FIRST
CREATES A REGISTRATION SCHEME IN
THE JANITORIAL INDUSTRY AND AN
OPPORTUNITY. TO TAKE SIMILAR
ACTION TO CREATE SIMILAR
LEGISLATION TO
TO.
DRESS THE SAME KIND OF LAYERED
CONTRACTING AN OPPORTUNITY FOR
CHEATING THAT EXISTS IN THE
JANITORIAL INDUSTRY. IN THE
JANITORIAL INDUSTRY IT IS THAT
IT'S AN INDUSTRY THAT IS.
MOSTLY OUT OF SIGHT IS CONDUCTED
LIKE THE CONTRACT MINISTRY BY A
LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DO NOT SPEAK
ENGLISH. AND ARE NOT AROUND A
LOT OF PEOPLE WHO.
IN THE FROM THE PUBLIC WHO CAN
SEE ABUSES TAKING PLACE.
THE REGISTRATION SCHEME THAT IS
GOING INTO EFFECT ON JULY FIRST
AS IS SHINES THE ADDITIONAL
LIGHT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF
DUST RELATIONS UPON THE.
CUT UPON THE GENERAL INDUSTRY.
BUT IN THE CONTRACT INDUSTRY IN
ADDITION TO THE D. C. A. AND THE
D. I. R..
INTERESTS THAT COME TO THE
LICENSURE.
PROCESS AND THEN IN THE WAGE
AND HOUR ISSUES.
THERE IS ALSO BECAUSE OF THIS
PRESUMPTION.
A LIGHTNING SHOWN INTO THAT INTO
THAT DARK INDUSTRY FROM THE
DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE FROM
LOCAL DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OFFICES
FROM THE WORKERS COMPENSATION
INSURANCE COMPANIES THEMSELVES
FROM THE EMPLOYMENT DEVELOPMENT
DEPARTMENT. AND WHEN YOU HAVE AN
INDUSTRY THAT IS SO RIFE WITH
ABUSES.
THAT EXTRA SCRUTINY ALLOWS US TO
FIND THOSE ABUSES AND AND STOP
CHEATERS IN THEIR TRACKS.
THEN JANITORIAL INDUSTRY.
BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENING AT NIGHT
BECAUSE NOBODY'S AROUND IS ONE
THAT REALLY NEEDS THIS KIND OF
ATTENTION. AND PUTTING THE FOCUS
HERE ON THE REGISTRATION SCHEME
AS WE DO IN THE CONTRACTING
INDUSTRY AROUND THE LICENSING
SCHEME.
CREATES A VERY SIMPLE FOCUSED
POINT BUT INITIAL QUESTION.
THAT ALLOWS COMPANIES AND
INSURANCE COMPANIES WHO ARE NOT
EVEN OPERATING IN THE STATE.
TO JUST WENT WHEN THEY'RE TAKING
A NEW CLIENT AND A NEW CLIENT
BUSINESS SENT TO ASK THAT
INITIAL QUESTION. ARE YOU
CONTRACTING WITH ANYBODY ARE YOU
MAKING SURE THEY'RE REGISTERED
ON THE CONTRACT STREET LICENSE
BEFORE YOU HIRE THEM SO THAT WE
CAN MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT. TRYING
TO ENSURE YOU FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE
YOUR CALLING SUBCONTRACTORS BUT
WHO ARE REALLY YOUR EMPLOYEES
ARE GONNA NEED TO BE.
COVERED WHEN THEY GET INJURED ON
THE JOB.
THANK YOU.

SO THAT IS A MOTION TO DO PASS
RECOMMENDATION JUD JUDICIAL
COMMITTEE.
THROUGH HER PLEASE KALRA.
NOT A. AYE LAD AYE STONE AYE.
DON'T BY JACKSON.
MITCHELL WHITE HOUSE.
I GUESS I'LL KEEP THE ITEM OPEN
YOUR NEXT ITEM OF AB TWENTY
SEVEN THIRTY TWO. AND THIS IS
WHAT I AM ABOUT LABOR
TRAFFICKING.
WE GET T RIGHT AGAIN SPONSORED
BY IDA.
OUR LOCAL DA I LIKE TO BEGIN BY
ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEE
AMENDMENTS OUTLINED ON PAGE SIX
OF THE ANALYSIS.
A TWENTY FOURTEEN URBAN
INSTITUTE STUDY FOUND THAT MANY
VICTIMS OF LABOR TRAFFICKING
WERE SUBJECT TO A VARIETY OF
PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL
TACTICS MEANT TO CONTROL ENSLAVE
VICTIMS INCLUDING THE USE OF
DOCUMENT SERVITUDE.
DOCUMENT SERVITUDE IS A PRACTICE
OF AN EMPLOYER WITHHOLDING AND
IMMIGRANTS LEGAL DOCUMENTS FOR
THE PURPOSE OF MANIPULATING THAT
EMPLOYEE. WITH VAST MAJORITY OF
LABOR TRAFFICKING VICTIMS BEEN
IMMIGRANTS IT IS VITAL THAT WE
PROTECT THESE WORKERS BY
PREVENTING UNSCRUPULOUS
EMPLOYERS AND TAKING ADVANTAGE
OF THEIR IMMIGRATION STATUS.
AB TWENTY SEVEN THIRTY TWO
ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE BY
DETERMINING A VIOLATION IS A
MISDEMEANOR AND POTENTIAL UP TO
TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS CIVIL
PENALTY. ALSO ESTABLISHES A
WORKERS BILL RIGHTS MUCH
EMPLOYER MUST PROVIDE A COPY TO
EVERY WORKER. WITH ME TODAY TO
TESTIFY IN SUPPORT OF AB TWENTY
SEVEN THIRTY TWO IS MARK DOYLE
WITH SANDIA COUNTY DISTRICT
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
THANK YOU.
CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF I'M MORE

ATTORNEYS.
OFFICE THEM CURLY SIGNED TO THE
SEX CRIMES AND
TRAFFICKING DIVISION.
I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF MY BOSS
DEFEAT VERGE DISTRICT ATTORNEY
SUMMER STEPHENS A SPONSOR THIS
BILL.
ALL THIS BILL HAS TWO COMPONENTS
ONE IS TO CREATE A MISDEMEANOR
CRIME AND PENALTY FOR THE
PRACTICE OF DOCUMENT SERVITUDE
THE OTHERS TO PUT EMPLOYEES. A
AND A PLAYERS ON NOTICE THAT
THIS IS A PROHIBITED PRACTICE.
WE BELIEVE THIS IS NECESSARY TO
PROTECT BOTH EMPLOYEES. AND
CALIFORNIA HAS A LONG HISTORY OF
OF OF.
PROTECTING ITS WORKERS FROM
WHETHER THEY BE CITIZENS ARE NON
CITIZENS
FROM.
.
BAD EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES BUT
ALSO INFLECTED OF A PROTECTS THE
GOOD ACTOR EMPLOYERS IN A MARKET
BASED ECONOMY.
THE CHEATERS ARE REWARDED BY
ENGAGING IN THIS PRACTICE BY NOT
PAYING PEOPLE A MINIMUM WAGE OR
GIVING THEM REAL IN OUR BREAKS
OR OVERTIME.
AND USING DOCUMENT SERVITUDE TO
FACILITATE THAT THEY GAIN AN
UNFAIR ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE OVER
THE GOOD ACTORS AND SO THIS BILL
WE BELIEVE PROTECT BOTH
IMMIGRANTS AND THE GOOD ACTORS
EMPLOYERS. WHO THE VAST MAJORITY
OF WHOM WOULD NEVER ENGAGE IN
SUCH A DECEPTIVE?
A PRACTICE SO WITH THAT BEING
SAID WE'D ARCHER AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU.
ADDITIONAL WITNESSES IN SUPPORT.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN MURR'S
MITCH SNIDER WITH CALIFORNIA
LABOR FEDERATION OLSEN SPORTS.
INITIALLY DRUG WITH NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION OF SOCIAL WORKERS IN

RENEE BAYARDO SEIU CALIFORNIA
ALSO IN SUPPORT.
ACUTE DITION AWARENESS IS AND SO
PARK WHEN THIS IS IN OPPOSITION
TO COME FORWARD.
I MEAN LOOK. GOOD MORNING MARDY
FISH ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HERE IN
OPPOSITION. OF WOULD TAKE VERY
SERIOUSLY THE PREVENTION OF
HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN WE DON'T
DISPUTE THE.
.
COMPLIANCE WITH THIS WITH THE
FEDERAL LAW IS IS IMPORTANT AND
THAT NO EMPLOYERS SHOULD BE
TAKING AND HOLDING EMPLOYEES
DOCUMENTS.
A HOWEVER WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT
CONCERNS WITH THE BILL AS IT'S
WRITTEN THERE'S AN OVERABUNDANCE
OF REQUIREMENTS WE BELIEVE ON
EMPLOYERS. AND INCLUDE POSTING
DISTRIBUTION COLLECTING SIGNING
COPYING REDISTRIBUTING AS WELL
AS A MAINTENANCE OF THE RECORDS.
THIS SEEMS LIKE WAY TOO MUCH WE
WOULD.
BE OKAY WITH ONE OR THE OTHER
EITHER POSTING. OR.
PROVIDING A NOTICE BUT BUT NOT
BOTH
A WE SPOKE WITH THE SPONSORS
WE'VE ALSO SPOKEN WITH THE OTHER
STAFF. AS WELL AS.
I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH
COMMITTEE STAFF AS WELL AND WE.
WILL CONTINUE TO DISCUSS AS WE
HOPE WE CAN COME UP WITH A
COMPROMISE THAT WORKS FOR
EVERYBODY.
IF.
GOOD MORNING. MISTER CHAIR
MISTER BY SIR THANK YOU SEAN LOS
THE NATIONAL FEDERATION OF
INDEPENDENT BUSINESS
REPRESENTING SMALL BUSINESS
OWNERS IN THE STATE CALIFORNIA.
ALSO POSED A BETWEEN SEVEN
THIRTY TWO FOR MANY THE REASONS
ARTIE NUMERATOR AND I'M BUT NOTS
REPEAT ANNIE. I JUST UNDERSCORE
A COUPLE IMPORTANT POINTS FOR US
FIRST AND FOREMOST OUR AND IF I
THE MEMBERS AS DO MOST EMPLOYERS
TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY. ANY ACTS
WHICH VIOLATE OUR WORKERS RIGHTS
TO LAWFUL TREATMENT IN THE
WORKPLACE AND ESPECIALLY ANY
CRIMES SUCH AS HUMAN TRAFFICKING
VERY IMPORTANT SERIOUS ISSUES.
AND WHAT WE DO FULLY UNDERSTAND
APPRECIATE THE GOOD INTENTIONS
BEHIND THIS BILL THE DETAILS OF
SUCH A MANDATE WOULD RESULT. IN
SIGNIFICANT BURDENS ESPECIALLY
ON SMALL EMPLOYERS.
WITH WHILE INCLUDING THIS HAVE
THE TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR
POTENTIAL PENALTY I'M
SPECIFICALLY REQUIRING THIS
WORKERS BILL OF RIGHTS DOCUMENT
BE PRESENTED IN THE PREFERRED
LANGUAGE OF THE EMPLOYEE.
ACKNOWLEDGED SIGNED RETAIN ON
FILE WILL LEAD TO MULTIPLE COST
AND EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS
INCLUDING THE COST TO TRANSLATE
ARGUMENT. IF THE EMPLOYEE SPEAKS
A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ONE
PROVIDED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS.
FURTHER THIS BILL REQUIRES
ENUMERATION OF SO CALLED RIGHTS
I WHICH ALREADY EXIST UNDER
FEDERAL LAW AS PLAY NOW IN THE
COMMITTEE ANALYSIS.
SUCH AS PROHIBITION OF
WITHHOLDING OR DESTROYING THEM
AND EMPLOYEES IMMIGRATION
DOCUMENTS.
SO AS I SAID EMPLOYERS OF ALL
SIZES ESPECIALLY SMALL EMPLOYERS
STRUGGLE TO COMPLY WITH A LONG
LIST OF COMPLEX DOCUMENT
RETENTION AND SIGNAGE
REQUIREMENTS. BECAUSE THIS BILL
ADDS NEW COSTLY MANDATES WITHOUT
PROVIDING MANY NEW PROTECTIONS
OUR RIGHTS AND IF IP DOES REMAIN
OPPOSED THIS TIME THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR.
THANK YOU ADDITIONAL WITNESSES
IN OPPOSITION.
BACK T THE COMMITTEE SENATORS

WE'LL LEAVE THIS ITEM OF AND
THANK YOU ASSEMBLY WOMAN.
GONZALEZ
S. HERE SUMMER ME MON COME
FORWARD PLEASE.
GOOD MORNING YOU HAVE AB IN
NINETEEN SEVENTY SIX.
I DID THANK CHAIR AND MEMBERS.
AND MANY OF US HAVE HEARD OF THE
HEALTH BENEFITS OF BREASTFEEDING
FOR BOTH MOTHER AND BABY WOMEN
WHO WORK OUTSIDE THE HOME ARE
LESS LIKELY TO. INITIATE BREAST
FEEDING AND TEND TO PRESSING FOR
A SHORTER LENGTH OF TIME WOMEN
OFTEN SITE AND SUPPORTIVE WORK
ENVIRONMENT INCLUDING A LACK OF
PRIVACY AND UNHYGIENIC SPACES AS
A REASON FOR DISCOUNTING
BREASTFEEDING. AB NINETEEN
SEVENTY SIX WOULD REQUIRE THAT
THE SPACE MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR
WOMEN TO EXPRESS MILK. IN THE
WORKPLACE THAT IS NOT A BATHROOM
AB NINETEEN SEVENTY SIX IS A
SMALL CHANGE TO PROVIDE
ADDITIONAL SUPPORT TO WORKING
MOTHERS AND HELP PRODUCE A
SIGNIFICANT BARRIER THAT
PREVENTS WOMEN FROM CONTINUING
TO BREASTFEED UPON RETURNING TO
WORK. BY ENSURING THAT THERE IS
A PRIVATE UNCLEAN SPACE
AVAILABLE TO EXPRESS BREASTMILK
WE HAVE SAT DOWN AND ENGAGE WITH
OPPOSITION TO HEAR THEIR
CONCERNS AND WILL CONTINUE
DISCUSSIONS SHOULD THIS BILL
MOVED FORWARD OUT OF COMMITTEE.
AND WITH ME TODAY I HAVE
MICHELLE BACA FROM THE
CALIFORNIA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION.
GLAD GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR
AND VICE CHAIR MITCHELL BLOCK
WITH THE CALIFORNIA MEDICAL
ASSOCIATION. AND WHERE THE POD
SPONSORS OF AB NINETEEN SEVENTY
SIX WHAT DOES ASSEMBLY MEMBER OF
LIMON MENTIONED INSURANCE THAT
NURSING MOMS HAVE A SPACE OF AN
ABOUT THEM TO EXPRESS BUS
BREASTMILK UPON THEIR TRAINING
TO WORK.
IN TWENTY TEN THE AFFORDABLE
CARE ACT AMENDED THE FEDERAL
FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT TO ADD
NEW WORKPLACE PROTECTIONS FOR
NURSING MOTHERS. REQUIRING THE
PROVISION OF A LOCATION TO
EXPRESS BREAST MILK OTHER THAN
ABOUT HIM THAT IS NEAR THE
EMPLOYEES WORK AREA SHIELDED
FROM VIEW AND FREE FROM THE
INTRUSION. OF CO WORKERS AND THE
PUBLIC.
GIVEN THE CURRENT UNCERTAINTY AT
THE FEDERAL LEVEL SURROUNDING
THE ACA WE BELIEVE IT IS
CRITICAL TO ENSURE THAT THE
WORKING MOMS IN CALIFORNIA HAVE
ACCESS TO A SANITARY LOCATION.
IN WHICH TO EXPRESS BREAST MILK.
HOW SHOULD THE FEDERAL LAW
GOVERNANCE IMPORTANT PROTECTION
BE A AMENDED OR CHANGED IN ANY
WAY?
I NEED FOR PUBLIC RESTROOMS ARE
UNHYGIENIC LOCATIONS IN WHICH TO
PREPARE FOOD FOR AN INFANT.
THERE IS EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT
MULTIPLE TYPES OF BACTERIA ARE
PRESENT ON ALL SURFACES
INCLUDING SINKS AND COUNTER TOPS.
I THINK MOST OF US WOULD NOT
WILLINGLY TO STEVEN MEALS IN THE
BATHROOM AND SO WE BELIEVE THE
SAME STANDARDS SHOULD APPLY WHEN
PREPARING FOOD FOR AN INFANT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH THE
COMMITTEE AND STAFF TODAY AND
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS THANK YOU CERTAINLY
WERE STILL. DEALING WITH THIS
ISSUE I MEAN I REMEMBER VOTING
FOR THESE BILLS FROM TARA FROM
WORKING.

THANK YOU WITNESSES IN

GOOD MORNING LARA CURTIS AGAIN
CALIFORNIA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
AND WEARE IN OPPOSE UNLESS
AMENDED POSITION TO THIS BILL
AGAIN WE ARE SYMPATHETIC TO THE
NATURE OF THE BILL AND OUR
MEMBERS DO ON A SUPPORT WORKING
MOMS AND THEIR RETURN TO WORK.
HOWEVER AS YOU ALL KNOW
BUSINESSES IN CALIFORNIA ARE AS
DIVERSE AS ITS PEOPLE AND THERE
ARE CERTAINLY SOME EMPLOYERS
THAT JUST DON'T HAVE ANOTHER
COMPLETELY PRIVATE. LOCATION
OTHER THAN A BATHROOM STALL FOR
EXAMPLE SMALLER LOCATIONS SUCH
AS TRACTOR COFFEE SHOPS AND
OTHER PLACES LIKE THAT.
AND WE REQUESTED THAT THE
AUTHORS OFFICE EXCEPT AMENDMENTS
REGARDING AN UNDUE HARDSHIP
EXEMPTION AND THAT DOES TRACK
THE FEDERAL LAW OF FOR FIFTY OR
MORE OR FIFTY OR LESS EMPLOYEES.
HOWEVER OUR UNDERSTANDING IS
THAT THEY ARE AND NOT AT THIS
POINT GOING TO BE ACCEPTING THAT
AMENDMENT SO WE'RE HOPING TO
WORK WITH THE OTHERS OFFICE TO
CLARIFY THAT TEMPORARY
STRUCTURES. MIGHT BE A
REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION IN
ORDER TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF
LITIGATION UNDER THIS PROVISION
AND THAT WAY SOME EMPLOYERS THAT
SIMPLY DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO
HAVE.
ADDITIONAL SPACE COULD HAVE A
TEMPORARY STRUCTURE THAT WOULD
PROVIDE A AT A REASONABLE SAFE
AND LACTATION ACCOMMODATION FOR
THEIR EMPLOYEES. AND THANK YOU
SO MUCH

WILL ALLOW HER CHIN. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
WE ARE BACK TO THE COMMITTEE.
CALDERON ACROSS
YEAH THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND.
AMONG THANK YOU FOR.
I'M BRINGING THIS FORWARD.
.
I KNOW AT LEAST BUSINESSES IN MY
DISTRICT.
.
ALWAYS TRY TO CONFORM TO THE
NEEDS OF THEIR EMPLOYEES IN A
PROVIDING APPROPRIATE SPACE
INCLUDING MY PHARMACY WE HAVE A
SEPARATE ROOM THAT.
.
BREASTFEEDING EMPLOYEES CAN CAN
UTILIZE AT THEIR AT THEIR AT
THEIR DISCRETION.
I HAVE A LOT OF.
AG IN MY DISTRICT EASTERN
COACHELLA VALLEY. AND IN THOSE
THE WESTERN GROWERS AND.
.
THE GREAT THE. GREAT GROWERS ARE
OPPOSED AND I CAN CERTAINLY
UNDERSTAND WHY THEY HAVE A LOT
OF WORKERS AT WORK IN THE FIELDS.
AND.
YOU KNOW.
TO TAKE THE THE WORKERS OUT OF
THE FIELDS APARTAMENTO WAREHOUSE
SOMEPLACE WHERE THEY CAN CAN
FEED.
MAKE BECAUSE OF STRESS ACTUALLY
FOR THE FOR THE MONTH. AND SO
I'VE HEARD SOME OF THE.
THE OPPONENTS MENTIONED.
EITHER A HARDSHIP AMENDMENT OR
A TEMPORARY STRUCTURE.
DOES YOUR BILL ALLOW FOR THESE
TEMPORARY STRUCTURES TO ALLOW
THEM TO COMPLY WITH THE LAW AT
THIS MOMENT IT IS NOT AND I
THINK I AM WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO
DO IS TOO NARROW A BLANKET
HARDSHIP EXEMPTION IS REALLY
HARD TO DO IT'S ALSO VERY
EXPENSIVE TO DO BECAUSE. IT
WOULD REQUIRE UP GREATER COST
AND TO THE STATE TO GO THROUGH.
WE'VE OFFERED VERY NARROW
HARDSHIP EXEMPTIONS AND THAT
WARRANT TAKEN BY THE OPPOSITION
SO WE'RE STILL WILLING TO HAVE A
CONVERSATION ABOUT WHAT THAT
LOOKS LIKE I'M SO SOMETHING
THAT'S NARROWLY CRAFTED IS
SOMETHING THAT MIGHT. BE AND
SOMETHING WE MIGHT CONSIDER.
PERSONAL DISCUSSIONS.
SO WHAT ABOUT.
DRIVE THROUGH RESTAURANTS ARE A
LOT OF DRIVE TO RESTAURANTS THAT
HAVE A VERY LITTLE.
AREA WHERE THE PREPARE THE FOOD
THEY MIGHT HAVE A. A RESTROOM
THAT USE BY.
ANYONE AND ONE RESTROOM IN
THEIR FACILITY AN THERE'S NO
PLACE ON THAT PROMISES FOR THEM
TO.
BASICALLY DO THIS
SO WOULD YOU REQUIRES A PART OF
THIS BILL THAT THEY HAVE TO DO
SOME TYPE OF.
CONSTRUCTION AT ON IN THE
PARKING LOT HER HOW YOUR COMEDY
THESE FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS THAT
HAVE BASICALLY NO SPACE TO DO
THIS. I THINK IT WOULD BE A LONG
WAIT AT WHAT I JUST SAID WE'RE
REALLY LOOKING AT FOR GOING TO
DO ANY HARDSHIP EXEMPTION THAT
IT'S NARROWLY CRAFTED.
AND AND THAT HAS NOT BEEN
SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN BROUGHT
FORWARD TO US AND SO. IT'S NOT A
CONVERSATION WERE NOT WILLING TO
HAVE BATES AND WE WILL NOT DO A
BLANKET I'M HER CHICKENS AND
FIFTH WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING WHAT
VERY SPECIFIC THAT. MEANS AT
SOME YOU KNOW I CAN NARROW
SOMETHING DOWN OKAY WELL I
APPRECIATE THAT MAYBE A WORK
WITH THE OPPONENTS ON A NARROW.
HARDSHIP EXEMPTION OR ALLOW FOR
TEMPORARY STRUCTURES I'M NOT
GONNA SPORT TODAY ABDOMEN WATCH
CAREFULLY BECAUSE I SUPPORT THE
SCOPE. AND INTENT OF WHAT YOU'RE
TRYING TO DO BUT I DON'T WANT TO
PUT A BUSINESSES THROUGHOUT THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA AT A
SIGNIFICANT DISADVANTAGE WITH
SOME.
PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL
LAWSUITS IF THEY IF THEY CAN'T
COMPLY AND.
AND RAISE THE SPECTER OF YET
MORE. TOWARD ACTIVITIES AGAINST
OUR BUSINESSES THAT ARE.
STRUGGLING TO STAY IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA AT THIS TIME SO.
GOOD LUCK AND I HOPE YOU'LL
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE
OPPONENTS Q..
THANK YOU ASSEMBLY ONE I I WANT
TO JUST THANK YOU FOR THIS.
YOU KNOW THERE THERE ARE SOME
LEGITIMATE CONCERNS ABOUT.
NEAR THE SMALL RESTAURANTS.
.
THE THE AGRICULTURAL ISSUE IS
IMPORTANT AS WELL I CAN'T EVEN
IMAGINE WHAT WOMEN ARE GOING TO
RIGHT NOW IN TALKING ABOUT
STRESS FOR THE. THE MOTHER IS
ACTUALLY DOING THAT TYPE OF WORK.
ODD BUT STILL TRYING TO HAVE HER
RIGHT TO BE ABLE TO EXPRESS MY
UP FOR HER CHILD. IS IMPORTANT
AS WELL.
I JUST HOPE THAT THE OPPOSITION
WORKS WITH YOU IN GOOD FAIH TO
TRY TO COME UP WITH THE
RESOLUTION BECAUSE I THINK THERE
IS.
A AWAY WE CONTENT CRAFT
SOMETHING THAT'S LIMITED.
BUT THAT ALSO ALLOWS
FOR THE WOMEN TO BE ABLE TO YOU
KNOW FOR HER RIGHT TO EXPRESS
LOVE FOR CHILD AND AND TRY TO
FIND WHAT THAT BALANCE IS.
I JUST GOT HERE SO I WAS ABLE
TO TRIED OF WORK THAT OUT FOR
YOU BUT I THINK.
I AS A BILL MOVES FORWARD I
THINK IT'S SOMETHING WORTHWHILE
I HOPE THE OPPOSITION CONTINUES
TO WORK WITH YOU IN GOOD FAITH.
THE SHOW.
WITH THAT IT DOES HAVE A DO
PASS RECOMMENDATION AYE THIS
MEASURE.
CHIU SENATE APPROPRIATIONS.
SURGERY PLEASE KALRA.
OTHER I MADE THE MOVE ON THE
COMMISSION.

THANK YOU GONNA HOLD THIS ITEM

SEGMENT HAVE IS THAT.
AB TWENTY TWO EIGHTY TWO
EVERYBODY AT MORNING HONEY.
GENTLEMAN.
I WAS AB TWENTY TWO EIGHTY TWO
IS A BILL THAT CONTINUES THE
PROGRESS TOWARDS ELIMINATING
WAGE GAP.
WE HAVE SOME OF THE STRONGEST
LAWS UP EQUAL PAY IN THE NATION.
A AND LAST YEAR WE DID I DID A
AB ONE EIGHTY SIX A BIPARTISAN
BILL THAT PROHIBITS AN EMPLOYER
FROM SEEKING.
SALARY HISTORY TO BE ABLE TO
MAKE THE THE CLAIM FOR.
A NEW WHICH.
HOWEVER IT STILL REMAINS
SOMEWHAT UNCLEAR ABOUT HOW YOU
CAN OR CANNOT USE THAT SO THIS
BILL IS SOMEWHAT OF A CLEAN UP
FROM LAST YEAR THAT SAYS. YOU
CAN'T USE IT IN COMBINATION WITH
ANYTHING ELSE UNLESS YOU COULD
ACTUALLY POINT TO ANOTHER REASON.
THE NINTH COURT OF APPEALS AT
ISSUED A DECISION THAT'S OUR
HISTORY CANNOT BE USED AND SO
THIS ALIGNS WITH THAT AND WE HAD
A LOT OF BUSINESSES THINKING. WE
CAN YOU VERIFY WITH THE EAST BUT
WE'RE TRYING TO DO HERE. SO
THAT'S WHAT THIS BILL DOES IT SO
FAR HAS RECEIVED THAT NO NO
VOTES AND HAS NO OPPOSITION AND
WITH ME HERE TODAY I HAVE MARIE
GO. ISHIHARA FROM THE CALIFORNIA
EMPLOYMENT LAWYERS.
THANK YOU GO HERE MISTER
CHAIRMAN TO VICE CHAIR.
AS ASSEMBLY MEMBER EGGMAN
POINTED OUT THIS IS JUST
PROVIDING SOME CLARITY ON SOME
RECENT CHANGES THAT WERE MADE TO
STRENGTHEN OUR EQUAL PAY LAWS
SPECIFICALLY AROUND PREVENTING
EMPLOYERS FROM USING PRIOR
SALARY TO PERPETUATE GENDER AND
RACE WAGE INEQUITIES. I'LL
COUPLE YEARS AGO WE ADDED A
SENTENCE THAT SAID PRIOR SALARY
BY ITSELF CANNOT JUSTIFY A
GENDER OR RACE WHICH
DIFFERENTIAL THERE WAS SOME
CONFUSION AROUND WHAT THAT
MODIFIER BY ITSELF MEANS. AND IT
WAS ALWAYS THE INTENTION NOT
PRIOR SALLY COULD BE CONSIDERED
BUT OWING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT
WAS A TRUE MEASURE A REFLECTION
OF THE OTHER FACTOR FACTORS THAT
IT WAS CONSIDERED. ALONG WITH SO
THAT'S WHAT THIS BILL CLARIFIES
THAT BOOK THAT A A PRIOR SALARY
IS NOT A FACTOR ON ITS OWN IT'S
CONSISTENT WITH AGAIN THAT THE
RECENT NINTH CIRCUIT DECISION SO
IT. CONFORMS CALIFORNIA ALONG
WITH THE FEDERAL EQUAL PAY ACT
SO.
SPECULATION AS WE ARRIVE AT.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU WITNESSES ABDISHO

THE EMPLOYMENT TRAINING PANELS
MISSION TO PROVIDE BUSINESSES

KEEPS CALIFORNIA COMPETITIVE AND
I'M JUST GOING TO SPEAK STRAIGHT
TO YOU WE KNOW A AS WE SEE OUR
YOUNG OF ADULTS MOVE INTO THE
WORK FORCE THAT UP MANY OF THEM
ARE COMING OUT.
WITH SKILLS ACADEMIC SKILLS BUT
AS A SOMETIMES WE LOOK AT SOME
OF THE THINGS THAT MAKE HIM A
GREAT EMPLOYEE LIKE BEING ABLE
TO WORK ON A TEAM BEING ABLE TO
SPEAK IT PUBLICLY. THOSE ARE
SOME OF THE THINGS WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THEY KNOW AND JUST
YESTERDAY. MY.
YES YESTERDAY MY TWENTY ONE YEAR
OLD SON WHO JUST GRADUATED FROM
CAL STATE FULLERTON WAS OFFERED
A JOB.
A FULL TIME JOB FOR MEDIA. WASTE
MY THUMB THROUGH VERY.
AND AND.
ONE OF THE THINGS HE ASKED ME
BECAUSE HE HAD A TURN DOWN
ANOTHER POSITION.
THAT HE HAD JUST RECEIVED A
SHOULD HE EMAIL THEM OR CALL
THEM AND I SAID HE SHOULD
DEFINITELY CALL BUT THOSE ARE
SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE ARE
HOPING TO ACCOMPLISH WITH THIS

OUR YOUNG ADULTS A WIDE.
EXPERIENCE OF HOW THEY SHOULD
BE.
INTERACTING IN THE WORK FORCE.
YOU WILL GET THE FLOOR.
GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR AND
VICE CHAIR MICHAEL RICE
CALIFORNIA MANUFACTURERS AND
TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATION AND WE'RE
PLEASED TO BE HERE IN SUPPORT OF
TWENTY HAVE AB TWENTY FOUR
TWENTY.
AS THE ASSEMBLY MEMBER SAT ON
THIS BILL IS REALLY JUST GOING
TO CLARIFY.
THAT.
TRAINING ON SOFT SKILLS IS AN
APPROVED USAGE AT ETP I AM
FINDING.
WHEN I ENTITIES SUCH AS
MANUFACTURING USE THESE.
FUNDS TO ACTUALLY TRAIN THEIR
WORKERS AYE I DO WANT TO SAY
THAT AS THE ASSEMBLY MEMBER ALSO
SAID THAT TRAIN FOR SOFT SKILLS
IS BECOMING JUST AS IMPORTANT.
AS THE TRAINING FOR THE
TECHNICAL SKILLS I'M FOR YOU
KNOW THE SKY MODERN DAY A
WORKPLACE I HAD THAT AT
INDIVIDUALS OR ENTERING INTO.
SKILLS LIKE PROFESSIONAL
ETIQUETTE.
HOW DO YOU KNOW HOW TO?
COMMUNICATION PROFESSIONAL
COMMUNICATION WORKING IN TEAMS
COLLABORATING RESPECTING YOUR CO
WORKERS.
THESE ARE ALL THE SKILLS ON
THAT ARE BECOMING JUST AS
IMPORTANT AS I SAT FOR THE
MODERN DAY WORK FOR WORKPLACE
AND MANUFACTURERS ARE. HAVING
DIFFICULTY FINDING INDIVIDUALS
WHO MIGHT HAVE A TECHNICAL SKILL
BUT WHO ARE ABLE TO WORK AND TO
WALK INTO THE WORLD OF WORK AND
BE ABLE TO COLLECT AND WHAT ELSE.
WOULD A SOFT SKILLS.
THE HARMONY.
WELL. I CAN ONE OF THE BILL I'M
JUST I GET WILL BE WE HAVE TO
LET JUST.
WELL SO THIS THIS IS REALLY
LEGISLATING THE USE OF THE
DOLLARS THAT.
BUT I I THINK THAT YOU KNOW.
KIND OF THINKING BACK ON MY OWN
EXPERIENCE I LEARNED A LOT OF
THIS FROM MY PARENTS WHO ARE
PROFESSIONAL SIGHTINGS.
THROUGH INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS
THAT WERE AVAILABLE FOR THROUGH
COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS AS
WELL AS MY SCHOOL SO I THINK YOU
KNOW. BUSINESSES AND EDUCATION
NEED TO COME TOGETHER
COLLABORATE MORE.
AND WE NEED TO YOU KNOW HAVE
MORE ENGAGEMENT FROM INDUSTRY TO
UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS THAT THEY
NEED. AND FRANKLY WE'RE
DISTILLING WITHIN A DIFFERENT
POPULATION OF INDIVIDUALS THERE
IN A DIFFERENT TWENTY FIRST
CENTURY WORLD SO WE JUST HAVE TO
REMIND THEM ABOUT THE ADVOCATES
OF THE WORLD OF WORK AND I THINK
IF WE DO ALL THOSE THINGS. WITH
OUR CRITIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS
THAT WE'D BE ABLE TO GET
INDIVIDUALS OF STUDENTS READY
FOR THESE JOBS.
ANY ADDITIONAL WITNESSES AND
SUPPORT.
CHAIRMAN I DAY BUTLER UNITED
CHAMBER ADVOCACY NETWORK ALSO IN
SUPPORT. ALSO JUSTIFY COULD ADD
TO HARVARD.
A SCHOOL OF EDUCATION DID A
STUDY THAT DEMONSTRATED THAT
YOUTH SUMMER EMPLOYMENT AND PART
TIME EMPLOYMENT. HAS REALLY
DIMINISHED SIGNIFICANTLY OVER
THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS AND SO
THE SKILLS THAT WE ALL USED TO
BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE JUST TEN PART
TIME EMPLOYMENT HIGH SCHOOL. WE
DON'T GET A ANYMORE AND THIS IS
ALSO APPROPRIATE FOR ADULT
EDUCATION AS WELL AS.
A HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION JUST AS
WE ALL KNOW SHOWING UP ON TIME
IS A FUNDAMENTAL.
ELEMENT OF WORKFORCE SO I JUST
WANTED A.
A COURSE APART THINK SHOWING UP
ON TIME TO WORK IS IMPORTANT.
I WAS LATE.

BASIC THINGS BEING ON TIME
WRITING A THANK YOU NOTE NOT
JUST TEXTING.
BUT OUT ONE OF THE THINGS THEY
THEY.
JUST RESEARCH WORK MEN
PARTICULARLY FROM THE AGES OF
ABOUT EIGHTEEN TO TWENTY SEVEN
THEIR WORST FEAR IS ACTUALLY
TALKING ON THE PHONE.
BECAUSE MANY OF THEM DON'T EVEN
HAVE A VOICE MESSAGE SET UP AND
THEY REALLY ONLY WANTED TAXED
AND THAT THERE. IF SOMEBODY
ACTUALLY ANSWERS THE PHONE.
THEY'RE TERRIFIED BECAUSE THEY
JUST HAVEN'T BEEN DOING THAT SO
WE THINK THIS WELL KIND OF SET
THE STAGE FOR WE'VE GOT TALK
WE'VE GOT IN IRAQ AND WE
CERTAINLY NOT MOONLIGHT
