LOCAL IN THE SAN I LOVE IT I

CLOSE ON THIS. YET THAT WE WHICH
ALAS YES. I ASK THAT YOU INTO OF
B. SIX EIGHT SIX AND THAT YOU.
TO RAISE THIS ISSUE RAISE THE TO
THE GOVERNOR TELL THIS EXCLUSION
IS AND IT THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
THREE SHORT. GOOD LUCK. OKAY
ONE. MADE THE POINT. WHEN I WORK
AND NOT ALLOWING. NUMBER. THANKS
FOR. BY POINT EIGHT. MY WIFE AND
I'M ALSO A- WHERE. I'M SPEAKING
. I DON'T. ACTIONS AND OVER.
THANK YOU. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE
THE SAFETY PROTECTIONS AND
RESOURCES THAT EXIST FOR ME THE
EMPLOYEES AT MY BUSINESS EXTEND
TO THE DOMESTIC WORKERS IN OUR
HOME. AND MY BUSINESS IMANAGE
FOR FULL TIME EMPLOYEES AND
DOZENS OF PART TIME WORKERS I'VE
WORKED WITH SOME OF MY EMPLOYEES
FOR MORE THAN TWENTY YEARS. I
REPEATEDLY SAY THAT SAFETY IS
OUR TOP PRIORITY AND DESPITE THE
DYNAMIC AND PHYSICAL NATURE OF
OUR VINEYARD AND WINERY WORK
OSHA REGULATIONS HAVE HELPED
PROVIDE A FRAMEWORK TO KEEP US
SAFE. IN OUR HOME MARK TO WORK
FOR US AS A NANNY WHILE SYLVIA
AND SHELLEY HAVE BOTH WORK FOR
US AS HOUSE CLEANERS FOR SEVERAL
YEARS. IT IS EASY FOR ME TO
OBTAIN SAFETY GUIDELINES AND
RESOURCES AT THE WINERY BUT THAT
CONTRASTS STARKLY WITH THE
SITUATION. WITH OUR DOMESTIC
EMPLOYMENT SITUATION WHERE I
HAVE TO RELY SOLELY ON THE
EXPERIENCE THAT COMES FROM
MANAGING MY BUSINESS FOR EXAMPLE
OR WINERY WORK EMPHASIZES HOW
DIFFERENT CLEANING AGENTS COME
WITH VARYING HEALTH RISKS AND
PROPER PPE SUCH AS MASKS AND
GLOVES ARE NECESSARY TO PROTECT
AGAINST THOSE POTENTIAL RISKS.
I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT THROUGH SB
SIX EIGHT SIX WE ARE
IMPLEMENTING THE RECOMMENDATIONS
OF THE SB THREE TWENTY ONE
ADVISORY COMMITTEE THAT GOVERNOR
NEWSOM MOVE FORWARD BACK IN
TWENTY TWENTY ONE. THE VOLUNTARY
HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES ARE
A GOOD START TOWARD OFFERING
DOMESTIC EMPLOYERS INFORMATION
WE NEED TO KEEP OUR EMPLOYEES
SAFE. AND SENATE BILL SIX EIGHT
SIX WOULD TAKE THE NEXT CRUCIAL
STEP BY PROVIDING EMPLOYERS LIKE
ME WITH THE NECESSARY EDUCATION
AND SUPPORT TO BE ABLE TO CARRY
OUT THOSE GUIDELINES. I BELIEVE
IT IS SELF EVIDENT THAT MARTIN
SYLVIA AND SHELLY. SHOULD
RECEIVE EVERY POSSIBLE
PROTECTION. HAVING CLEAR RULES
AND THE APPROPRIATE TOOLS AND
RESOURCES FACILITATES OUR
ABILITY AS EMPLOYERS TO KEEP OUR
HOME SAFE NOT ONLY FOR US BUT
ALSO FOR THE DOMESTIC WORKERS WE
EMPLOY. THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING
SIX SB SIX EIGHT SIX. RIGHT
THANK YOU SO MUCH. SO BECAUSE WE
ARE IN THIS VENUE WE'RE GOING TO
CHANGE THE FORMAT A LITTLE BIT
SO INSTEAD OF GOING TO A POINT
WHERE WE'RE GOING TO DO NOW IS
IF YOU ARE ME CHIU IN SUPPORT OF
THE BILL. IF YOU COULD COOPERATE
WITH THE SERGEANTS WIND WIND

MORE COMPLEX. WE THINK YOU KNOW
IN TERMS OF IMPLEMENTATION YOU
KNOW THAT A LOT OF OTHER AREAS
THAT WE GO IN AND TRY TO- OSHA
TYPE WORK AND JUST BECAUSE OF
THE NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND
HOUSEHOLDS. BY SO MANY OTHER
THINGS THAT- ARE NOT FIXED YOU
KNOW IN THE ENVIRONMENT ITSELF-
I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU AS
YOU AUTHORED THAT THESE. WORKERS
DO DESERVE- THOSE SAME
PROTECTIONS SO WHEN THEY GO TO
WORK- WE JUST HAVE TO BE VERY
VERY CAREFUL HOW WE- IN FORCED.
LABOR WHAT SPECIFIC TO YOU KNOW
THE CIRCUMSTANCES- IN I THINK
PROBABLY THAT THIS THIS INDUSTRY
THE SPECIFIC AREA WORKFORCE
NEEDS ITS OWN SET OF STANDARDS
REGULATIONS. AND PENALTIES GAMES
BECAUSE- ON. THE ONE HAND WE-
ALL WORKERS ON THE OTHER HAND WE
HAVE. ESSENTIALLY PRIVATE
RESIDENCES PRIVATE HOMES AND- AS
WE'VE SEEN WITH IN OTHER AREAS
OF WORK THAT THIS LEGISLATURE
HAS TRIED TO DO WHEN WE GET INTO

GETTING PUSHED THAT. BECAUSE US

CONCERNED MAKE SURE THAT DOESN'T
HAPPEN- BUT- YOU KNOW. PUTTING A
STAKE IN. THE GROUND OR THE
WATER TAKE YOUR YOUR METAPHOR AS
YOU WILL AND MOVING FORWARD- IS
IMPORTANT SO I I'M SUPPORTING

THE SENSITIVE ISSUES AND- IN
CONTINUE EXPLORE YOU KNOW THE
BEST ROUTE. FOR DIRECTING D. I.
R. TO ISSUE STANDARDS THAT ARE

CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WE FACE- YOU

MORE OF A CONCERN ABOUT.
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES THAN

READY THANK YOU THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR. AND UP MEMBERS I AM PROUD
TO PRESENT SB SEVEN TO THREE
WHICH WILL REMOVE THE SUNSET TO
THE EXISTING REHIRING RIGHTS
ENACTED FOR HOSPITALITY WORKERS
AT THE START OF THE CALL BUT
NINETEEN PANDEMIC LOW INCOME
WORKERS IN THE HOSPITALITY
INDUSTRY PRIMARILY IMMIGRANTS
AND WOMEN OF COLOR WERE LAID OFF
AND ANXIOUSLY WAITED TO SEE IF
THEY COULD GET THEIR JOBS BACK.
MOST OF THE JOB LOSSES WERE
AMONG HOTEL HOUSEKEEPERS MOSTLY
WOMEN OF COLOR AND OVER THE AGE
OF FIFTY RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT
FOLLOWING ECONOMIC RECESSIONS
WOMEN OVER FIFTY ARE AFFECTED
THE MOST IN THEIR EXPERIENCE OF
LONG TERM UNEMPLOYMENT. AT SIXTY
TWO OR OLDER THEY ARE 50% LESS
LIKELY TO BE REHIRED ACCORDING
TO THE URBAN INSTITUTE. THESE
WORKERS HAD NO SOURCE OF INCOME
OR SECURITY AND AFTER MANY
DECADES ON THE JOB MANY OLDER
WORKERS FEARED THAT EMPLOYERS
WOULD ONLY BE HIRE YOUNGER NEWER
WORKERS AT LOWER PAY RATES. THAT
IS WHY THE LEGISLATURE WORK TO
PASS SB NINETY THREE AND TWENTY
TWENTY ONE WHICH PROVIDED
RETIREE RIGHTS JIM PLOYS WORKING
IN THE HOSPITALITY. HOTELS
EVENTS CENTRES IN AIRPORT
SERVICE AND HOSPITALITY
PROVIDERS WHO WERE LAID OFF DUE
TO A NON DISCIPLINARY REASON
RELATED TO THE COVERT NINETEEN
PANDEMIC INCLUDING LACK OF
BUSINESS A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN
ORDER OR PUBLIC HEALTH
DIRECTIVE. IS THE NINETY THREE
WAS CLEARLY NEEDED AS THE
TOURIST INDUSTRY WE OPEN FOR
BUSINESS IN FACT THE LABOR
COMMISSIONER CITED THE TERRA NAY
A RESORT. FOR VIOLATING THE LAW
IN NOT OFFERING FIFTY THREE
WORKERS THEIR JOBS BACK WHEN THE
RESORT RE OPENED. THE WORKERS
INCLUDING HOUSEKEEPERS BANQUET
SERVERS BARTENDERS JUNIOR SOUS
CHEFS AND MASSAGE THERAPISTS
WERE ESSENTIAL TO THE RUNNING OF
A HIGH END RESORT. OVERALL THE
HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY IS NOW
AMONG THE COUNTRY'S FASTEST
GROWING EMPLOYERS. THE
HOSPITALITY'S INDUSTRY-
INDUSTRY'S RAPID REBOUND IS IN
PART THANKS TO THE RE HIRING
RIGHTS ESTABLISHED IN S. B.
NINETY THREE THAT PROVIDES A
SKILLED AND EXPERIENCED WORK
FORCE AS THE INDUSTRY RE OPENS.
HOWEVER THESE HIRING RIGHTS ARE
SET TO END. SB SEVEN TWO THREE
SEATS TO MAKE THESE RIGHTS
PERMANENT. THE BILL REMOVES THE
SUNSET AND THE REFERENCE TO CODE
RELATED REASONS FOR LAOS FROM
THE EXISTING HOSPITALITY BE
HIRING RIGHTS. MAKING THIS LAW
PERMANENT WILL ALLOW EMPLOYEES
WORKING IN THE HOSPITALITY
INDUSTRY TO RETURN TO THEIR JOBS
AFTER TEMPORARY LAYOFFS THROUGH
NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN AND
PROVIDES JOB SECURITY TO THOSE
WORKERS- WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT
TO- TAKE NOTE OF IS THAT THE
INDUSTRY HAS NOT COMPLETELY-
ARE. GONE BACK TO NORMAL OR TO
THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF- THE
ECONOMIC RIVER REVERBERATIONS OF
THE PANDEMIC ARE FAR FROM OVER-
AND NO ONE HAS COULD HAVE
PREDICTED HOW LONG THE PANDEMIC
WAS GOING TO LAST AND HAVE AN
IMPACT ON OUR ECONOMY. SO TODAY
I HAVE WITH MADE TO WITNESSES TO
SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS BILL

THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR MEMBER
SARA FLOCKS CALIFORNIA LABOR
FEDERATION ONE OF THE SPONSORS
OF THE SPELL AND SUPPORTERS OF
THAT SB NINETY THREE THAT PUT
THIS LINE TO PLACE- AND WE ARE
SPONSORS OF THIS BILL. BECAUSE
RECALL RIGHTS HAVE PROVEN TO BE
GOOD IN PROTECTING WORKERS
EXPEDITING HIRING AND SUPPORTING
ECONOMIC RECOVERY FOR WORKERS.
SANDERS STORY IS ONE OF MANY
MANY WORKERS SPEND DECADES
WORKING THEIR WAY UP IN THE
HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY IN JOBS
WHERE THEY CAN SUPPORT THEIR
FAMILIES AND SO MASS LAYOFFS ARE
DEVASTATING THEIR DEVASTATING TO
THE WORKERS AND THEIR
DEVASTATING TO ENTIRE
COMMUNITIES WHAT RECALL RIGHTS
DO. IS RELIEVE THE ANXIETY AND
KEEP WORKERS CONNECTED TO THAT
JOB- WITH THE HOPE THAT THEY
WILL BE ABLE TO GO BACK IT ALSO
PREVENTS AGE DISCRIMINATION AND
SALARY DISCRIMINATION AS WE'VE
HEARD AND DISCRIMINATION AGAINST
PEOPLE WHO MIGHT HAVE BEEN
ADVOCATES- WHO HAVE SPOKE UP FOR
THEIR RIGHTS ON THE JOB OR WE'RE
STEWARDS- WE ALSO THINK THAT
IT'S GOOD FOR EMPLOYERS.
RECRUITMENT HIRING TRAINING THIS
IS ALL REALLY EXPENSIVE AND
EMPLOYERS ARE STRUGGLING TO FIND
WORKERS ESPECIALLY IN THE
HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY- WE KNOW
THAT THERE'S HUGE VACANCIES
SPECIALLY AND LA AND SAN
FRANCISCO. AND THEY CAN'T FIND
ENOUGH WORKERS. THIS ALSO GOOD
FOR THE ECONOMY IN GENERAL
ECONOMISTS HAVE FOUND THAT
KEEPING WORKERS CONNECTED TO
THEIR JOBS REDUCES LONG TERM
UNEMPLOYMENT AND HELPS THE
ECONOMY BOUNCED BACK FASTER IT'S
ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT HOSPITALITY
BECAUSE THAT'S THE INDUSTRY
HARDEST HIT DURING ECONOMIC
DOWNTURNS. PEOPLE STOP TRAVELING
THEY STOPPED GOING TO
RESTAURANTS AND SO THOSE WORKERS
ARE IMPACTED FIRST- IT ALSO HAS
A PROVEN TRACK RECORD SANTA
MONICA HAS HAD A SIMILAR LOSS
SINCE TWO THOUSAND ONE- IT'S
BEEN TWENTY TWO YEARS. THE CITY
AND COUNTY OF LA MADE THEIR
RECALL LAW PERMANENT. LONG BEACH
HAS ALSO FOLLOWED SUIT SO THERE
IS A TRACK RECORD OF SAYING HEY
THIS IS A LAW THAT WORKS IT
MAKES SENSE IT'S GOOD FOR
WORKERS AND EMPLOYERS- IT GIVES
AN ORDERLY WAY. TO HAVE A REHIRE
WHEN THE ECONOMY COMES BACK AND
SO WE WOULD URGE YOUR SUPPORT
THANK YOU. RIGHT THANK YOU FOR
YOUR TESTIMONY- WE CAN MOVE NOW
TO ANYONE WHO WISHES TO EXPRESS
ITS SUPPORT POSITION IN THE
COMMITTEE ROOM- NAME
AFFILIATION. AND SUPPORT GOOD

PURE WORKFORCE OR LABOR'S
STANDPOINT- I SUPPORT THE BILL I
HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE
APPROPRIATIONS CONSEQUENCES ARE
INDOORS AT YOU KNOW OUR
JURISDICTION HERE ALTHOUGH I
SUSPECT THAT. THEY WOULD BE-
PRETTY SIGNIFICANT IT'S A
SIGNIFICANT AS AS PERHAPS- ANY
BILL WE'RE HEARING TODAY- SO. I
DON'T KNOW. HOW TO DEAL WITH
THAT OF COURSE COMMITTEE STOP-
YEAH CAN ONLY CONCERT. OBSERVE
THOSE KINDS OF TRAITS IN THE
BILL- BUT AGAIN I FOR ONE-
WITHOUT GETTING INTO IT. AT
ACCESS DETAIL- THEY HAVE A
TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF EMPATHY AND
SYMPATHY FOR- SOME OF THE WAY H.
YOU KNOW IN YOUR WORK FORCE
ISSUES THAT ARE OUT THERE WITH
THEIR OWN. WITH THEIR OWN GROUP
IN I THINK IT'S- IT'S IMPORTANT
IN THIS COMMITTEE FOR ME TO SAY.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO TAKE A
DIFFERENT APPROACH- TO ADVANCE
WORK FORCE YOUR- THEN WE WOULD
ELSEWHERE- AGAIN. HOW MUCH OF A
TOUGH ROAD YOU HAVE BUT ON THIS
ONE YOU KNOW IN TERMS OF
FIGURING OUT WHERE THAT MONEY
COMES FROM THE CENTER IS A WHOLE
NOTHER ISSUE THAT. COULD CAUSE
ANY ANY COULD BE NEED TO BE LESS
SUPPORTIVE DOWN THE ROAD THAT
SETTLE TURNED MY COLLEAGUES AND
SEE IF ANYBODY WANTS SAID
ANYTHING CENTER WHERE. SERVEWARE
MOVES A BILL. YEAH WILL YEAH I
JUST ONE QUICK COMMENT SO YOU
YOU YOU YOU TALKED ABOUT NOT
NECESSARILY RELATED TO THIS BILL
BUT- HOW WE'VE ADDRESSED-
SEARCHER ASMAN IN THOSE TYPE
ISSUES AND I WANT TO GIVE- THE
PRO TEN AND- IN THE RULES.
COMMITTEE A LOT OF CREDIT IN
CLEANING THAT UP WHEN THEY NEED
TO. MOVEMENT STRUCK. DIFFERENT
LEADERSHIP AT THAT TIME AND
NOTHING WAS IN PLACE AND I THINK
WE'VE COME A LONG WAY ON THAT
BUT- ON YOUR PROPOSAL I MEAN. I
MEAN I THINK IT'S REALLY ONLY
THE ONLY THE RIGHT THING TO DO.
I MEAN WE IMPOSE THESE ON ON
OTHER INDUSTRIES BUT WE DON'T
OPPOSE HIM ON OR SOMETHING ELSE
ME AND MY STAFF. LAST NIGHT WE
WERE HERE TILL AFTER ELEVEN
FORTY NINE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
WHICH START AT NINE AM. AND WE
RAN BEFORE EIGHT SAID PREPARE
FOR THIS COMMITTEE IN AND IN
ANOTHER COMMITTEE SO THEY WORK
REALLY HARD AND WITH NOT FAIR
COMPENSATION. SO WITH THAT-
CAN'T BE HAPPY TO SUPPORT YOUR
BILL TODAY. IT IT YOU AN ENEMY
SAY. I KNOW THE ALTERNATE SYSTEM
COLLEAGUES KNOW THIS BUT FOR
OTHERS LISTENING INCLUDING STOP
MEAN. WHEN I SAY APPROPRIATIONS
IT'S JUST SOMEBODY'S JUDGMENT OR
ANOTHER COMMITTEE THERE'S
CONSTRAINTS I THINK AS WE KNOW
ON. WHAT THIS LEGISLATURE IS
STATUTORILY ALLOWED TO INVEST IN
SO WE'LL WE'LL SEE HOW THAT ALL
PLAYS OUT IF A BILL PASSES IN.
WE DO HAVE A PROMOTION BY
SENATOR WILK I JUST WONDER WELL
I. GONNA ADD ONE OF. I WITH THE
WITH YOU CHAIR AND SUPPORTING
THIS BILL I HAVE SOME OTHER
WORKER CLASSIFICATIONS. WILL
HAVE SUPPORT ON I THINK RAISING
STANDARDS IS IMPORTANT ACROSS
THE BOARD IN. AND AS WELL AS WE
KNOW- THERE'S AN EFFORT- AND I
THINK THIS COMMITTEE- WHAT WILL
SECURE THAT LATER ABOUT RAISING
STANDARDS. IN TERMS OF VOICE AT
WORK. FOR LEGISLATIVE STAFF SO
I'M HOPING THIS IS THE BEGINNING
OF RAISING STANDARDS- FOR
WORKERS WHO ARE HERE DOING. THE
BUSINESS OF DEMOCRACY SO I AM I
JUST WANTED TO SAY- WELCOME. TO
THE FIGHT FOR. RAISING STANDARDS
FOR WORKERS. IT IT WAS ACTUALLY
SENATOR WHERE HE WAS PREPARED TO
MAKE THE MOTION BUT I DO WANT TO
GIVE AN OPTION TO CLOSE. THANK
YOU I APPRECIATE THAT AND I'LL
BE BRIEF- AT THANK YOU FOR THE
SUPPORT A SUPER APPRECIATE IT
MORE THAN THAT I THINK OUR
EMPLOYEES APPRECIATE IT. THEY DO
PUT IN LONG HOURS AND- AND ALSO
WITH THE WITH RESPECT TO THE
COSTS. WHEN THAT GETS COSTED OUT
THERE IS AN EXEMPTION IF IT AN
EMPLOYEE MAKES TWO TIMES THE
MINIMUM WAGE. ARE THEY ARE THEY
ARE EXEMPT FROM OVERTIME
REQUIREMENTS SO THIS WINDS UP
BEING- THAT THE EMPLOYEES THAT
DON'T MAKE THAT. AND AND SO THAT
WILL BE A LIMITER ON HOW MUCH
THIS THIS ITEM COSTS AND DOES SO
WITH THAT I. WOULD APPRECIATE AN
AYE VOTE AND THANK YOU. OKAY SO
AGAIN- NO SENATOR WHERE'D IS
STRONGLY A MOTION AND WILL HAVE
FROM THE ASSISTANCE THAT IN CALL
THE ROLL PLEASE. THANK YOU.

PRESS PERCENT SHORTAGE WHAT IS
NEEDED. TO MEET THE UNDENIABLE
OBLIGATIONS OF THE SYSTEM.
CALPERS LOST BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
MORE THAN WAS PREVIOUSLY
REPORTED IN THE VOLATILE MARKETS
OF TWENTY TWENTY TWO. THE SYSTEM
ANNOUNCED THAT IT INVESTMENT
LOSSES WERE MINUS SEVEN POINT 5%
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR. WHICH WAS A
FURTHER DOWNGRADE FROM THE
INITIAL SIX POINT 1% RETURNS
REPORTED IN TWENTY TWENTY TO.
WIDENING THE ALREADY LARGE GAP
BETWEEN CALPERS ASSETS AND ITS
POTENTIAL LIABILITIES THE TWENTY
TWENTY TWO ANNUAL LOSS WAS THE
FIRST SINCE THE GREAT RECESSION
AND ACTIVELY EVISCERATED. THE
FUND THAT PROVIDES BENEFITS TO
CALIFORNIA STATE EMPLOYEES AND
NEARLY THREE THOUSAND COUNTIES
CITIES AND SPECIAL DISTRICTS AND
OTHER EMPLOYEES. THROUGH THE
YEARS CALPERS FAILURE TO MEET
ITS ASSUMED RATE OF RETURN HAS
BEEN THE MAIN DRIVER OF THE
SYSTEMS UNFUNDED LIABILITY. AND
WITH THE LATEST INVESTMENT
LOSSES APPLIED TO AN ESTIMATED
CALPERS DEBT IS NOW A HUNDRED
AND SIXTY FOUR BILLION DOLLARS
TRANSLATING TO OVER FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS IN DEBT FOR
EVERY CALIFORNIA. AFTER THE
FISCAL LOSSES OF TWENTY TWENTY
TWO CAL CALPERS REPORTED THAT
IT'S FUNDED RATIO PLUMMETED FROM
81% AND TWENTY TWENTY ONE TO
SEVENTY TWO PERCENT. AS OF JUNE
TWENTY TWENTY TWO WHICH MEANS
PENSION SYSTEM NOW HAS JUST
SEVENTY TWO CENTS OF EACH DOLLAR
NEEDED. TO PROVIDE THE PENSION
BENEFITS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN
PROMISED TO CURRENT WORKERS AND
RETIREES. AND THAT'S HIGHER THAN
IT'S BEEN IN THE PAST SO THAT'S
A GOOD THING. BUT IT'S STILL NOT
WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE.
CALIFORNIA'S GUARANTEED PUBLIC
SECTOR WORKERS PENSIONS THAT ARE
GUARANTEED BY THE STATE MEANING
THE STATE AND LOCAL TAXPAYERS
WILL ULTIMATELY BE ON THE HOOK
FOR CALPERS DAT THE STATE MUST
COMPENSATE FOR THE DEBTS.
THROUGH INCREASED CONTRIBUTIONS
LIKELY CAUSING STATE LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS CONTRIBUTION RATES
TO RISE AS TAXPAYERS ON THE HOOK
TO MAKE UP FOR THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE ASSUMED RATE OF
RETURN OF SIX POINT 8% AND THE
MICE SEVEN POINT 5% LOSS THEY'VE
SUFFERED. IN BOTH THE SENATE AND
ASSEMBLY COMMITTEES HAVE ALREADY
IMPLEMENTED RULES FOR
LEGISLATION SUBMITTED TO THE
COMMITTEE IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE
TAKEN UP FOR CONSIDERATION TO
STEER POLICY ALTHOUGH NOT ALWAYS
A FISCAL COMMITTEE. FROM IMPACT
OF TIMETABLE ANALYSIS IN THE
SENATE HEALTH COMMITTEE TO DATA
ANALYSIS OF PAST NUMBER FOURTEEN
TAX REVENUE. IN THE ASSEMBLY
REVENUE AND TAX COMMITTEES.
DURING THIS TIME OF ECONOMIC
UNCERTAINTY MANY CALPERS
STAKEHOLDERS RECOGNIZE THE LACK
OF UNCERTAINTY OVERSIGHT AND
PLANNING THAT HAS KEPT SO MANY
PUBLIC PENSION SYSTEMS UNDER
FUNDED FOR THE LAST FEW DECADES.
THAT EXIST MY BILL SB THREE
HUNDRED SEEKS TO REMEDY THIS. BY
REQUIRING ANY BILL TO BE HEARD
IN THE SENATE LABOR PUBLIC
EMPLOYMENT AND RETIREMENT
COMMITTEE. AS IT SPECIFICALLY
RELATES TO CALPERS MUST PRODUCE
A FISCAL ANALYSIS PROVIDED BY
THE NONPARTISAN BODY THAT IS THE
L. A. O. LEGISLATIVE ANALYST
OFFICE. PUBLIC PENSION PLANS AND
THAT'S TAXPAYERS ESPECIALLY
VULNERABLE TO FINANCIAL SHOCKS
AND THEY MAY HAVE IN THE PAST.
CALIFORNIA MUST PRIORITIZE
SOLUTIONS TO MINIMIZE THESE
RISKS IN THE FUTURE BY MAKING
CALIFORNIA CALPERS MORE
RESILIENT AND PREPARED TO DEAL
WITH THE UPS AND DOWNS OF THE
CERTAIN ECONOMIC. FUTURE
UNCERTAIN ECONOMIC FUTURE

COMMITTEE- AND I MADE SOME
COMMENTS. EARLIER WITH REGARD TO
THE AMOUNTS OF THE ONLY THING I
REALLY WANT TO SAY IN ADDITION
TO THAT- IN THIS CASE IS THIS.
NARROWED FOCUS OF THE BILL IS
SIMPLY A CALL FOR INFORMATION-
THERE'S SOME SENTIMENT WITHIN
THE COMMITTEE THAT THAT
INFORMATION. ISN'T UNNECESSARY
BUT WHAT WOULD ACTUALLY BE
USEFUL IN HELPING COMMITTEE
STAFF YOU KNOW DO AN ANALYSIS
GOING FORWARD- THAT'S MY ****
EACH YEAR IT'S NOT JUST. OTHER
PEOPLE'S OPINIONS- IN WITH THAT
I'M WILLING TO SUPPORT IT WITH
THE AMENDMENTS THAT ACCEPTED I
UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS AND
CERTAINLY RESPECT. THE
SENTIMENTS OF MY COLLEAGUES AND
WHATEVER THEY WANTED TO HEAR- SO
THAT'S NOT A HARD RECOMMENDATION
OF ANY SORT ON MY PART- IT AGAIN
JUST A WILLINGNESS TO SUPPORT
THE BILL AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS
GOING FORWARD WITH PREPARATIONS
AND ALL THE OTHER ISSUES THAT
WOULD HAVE TO. DEAL WITH THAT
SAID- TURN TO OTHER COLLEAGUES
NOW CENTER WHERE. THANK YOU.
MISTER CHAIR I WAS PREPARED TO
OPPOSE THIS BILL BEFORE THE
AMENDMENTS AND I STILL HAVE
CONCERNS. IT IN PARTICULAR ARE
IN RELATION TO DIVESTMENT AND
RECALL REQUIRING AN ADDITIONAL
REPORT THERE. AND AT THE LAST
MINUTE. ACTUALLY HAS WORKED I
DON'T WANT IT I. SPEARHEADED
DOESN'T MATTER THREE FIVE YEARS
AGO. ARE A DIVESTMENT RELATED TO
APARTHEID IN SOUTH AFRICA AND
THE CRITICISMS WERE ALWAYS THIS
WILL REALLY BOUNCE OUR PENSION
SYSTEM. THIS IS GOING TO FORCE
THEM TO SELL THINGS AT DIFFERENT
TIMES AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. IT
JUST DIDN'T HAPPEN AND IT'S THE
SAME DEBATE NOW WITH REGARD TO
DIVESTMENT IN A FOSSIL FUEL. AND
THE AUTHOR OF THE BILL WHICH
PROVIDES SENATE TAKEN.
AMENDMENTS INCLUDING FROM THIS
COMMITTEE TO ALLOW TWELVE YEARS
TO DEAL WITH THE FIDUCIARY
RESPONSIBILITIES THAT I BELIEVE.
ADDRESSES THE ISSUE OF WHETHER
OR NOT THERE'S GOING TO BE A
FINANCIAL IMPACT. IN A WAY THAT
THERE'S NOT A WASH TO THE
SYSTEM. AND THE STATEMENT THAT
WAS MADE WAS OVERALL ABOUT
GUITAR SYSTEM. DAN THIS BILL
ISN'T NECESSARILY TIED TO SOME
OF THOSE OTHER ISSUES THAT ARE
READING WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE
SYSTEM AND SO. ARE I'M GOING TO
GO ALONG WITH THE CHAIR AND GIVE
YOU A CHANCE TO CONTINUE TO WORK
ON THIS PART I JUST THOUGHT I
SHOULD GIVE VOICE TO THOSE
CONCERNS THANK. CENTER THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR AND I AGREE WITH
WHAT'S BEEN SAID BY BY MY
COLLEAGUES IN THE CHAIR YOU KNOW

AMENDMENTS ARE BEING ACCEPTED I
WASN'T SURE I WAS UNCLEAR OKAY
THAT'S WHAT I WASN'T CLEAR SO WE
ARE ACCEPTING THE AMENDMENT YES
THAT CAME OUT OF COMMITTEE YES.
I'M WITHOUT I JUST WANT TO ADD-
DIVESTMENT IS AN IMPORTANT TOOL-
I REMEMBER- GROWING UP MY MOTHER
BEING A PART OF PUSHING FOR-
DIVESTMENT FOR FROM APARTHEID
SOUTH AFRICA- AND- WE SAW IT AS
YOU SAID EARLIER POINTED OUT.
THAT THAT THAT BEST MEET CHANGE
THE WORLD. AND THEN THE END OF
THE DAY THE WORKERS WERE STILL
MADE WHOLE- AND THE PROGRAM
REMAIN SOLVENT AND GROWING FAR
AFTER THAT SO I'M I'M GLAD TO

THAT POINT WHERE WE CAN LET YOU
CLOSE AND THEN ENTERTAIN A
MOTION. GREAT THANK YOU SO MUCH-
YEAH I JUST WANTED TO ANSWER TO
THE OPPOSITION TO THIS. WHAT
THIS BILL DOES IS IT PROTECTING
EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE TALKING
ABOUT AND IT HELPS US IF WE ARE
GOING TO IN SEARCH- THE
LEGISLATURE INTO THE PROCESS OF
DETERMINING WHAT IS. A GOOD
INVESTMENT AND WHAT ISN'T THAT
WE AT LEAST HAVE THE INFORMATION
AVAILABLE TO US SO WE UNDERSTAND
WHAT WE'RE DOING WHAT THE PULP
ATTENTIONAL REPUTATIONS ARE THAT
OF THAT ARE AND THAT COMES FROM
THE L. A. O. BECAUSE L. A. O. IS
AN INDEPENDENT BODY. AND AND SO
THEY CAN GIVE US THEIR BEST
ESTIMATE SO THAT WHEN WE ARE
MAKING NEED JUST THESE DECISIONS
REGARDING PENSION PLANS. WHICH
ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO THE
PEOPLE THAT ARE RETIRED- I HAVE
A FAMILY FULL OF TEACHERS AND-
MANY OF THE THEM HAVES AND PUT
INTO THEIR PENSION FOR YEARS AND
YEARS. AND I WANT TO ENSURE
THAT. WE CAN STILL THERE CAN
STILL BE A POLITICAL SAY AND
WHAT'S GOING ON AND BUT HOWEVER
IF WE DON'T DO. IT DON'T DO
ACTIONS THAT ACTUALLY FORCE. US
. TO INVEST IN THINGS THAT ARE
NOT. GOING TO HELP MAKE SURE
THAT WE HAVE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY
THAT WE NEED. TO MAKE THAT THE
PENSION SYSTEM ALSO WITH THAT I
APPRECIATE THE DISCUSSION IN THE
DIALOGUE AND- AND I ASKED. THANK

MAKE SURE WITH THE UTMOST
RESPECT THAT WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT

HAVE TREMENDOUS CONFIDENCE IN
THEIR ANALYSIS OF WITHOUT ANY
OTHER ANALYSIS- AND THE SAME FOR
THE OTHER HOUSE SO- THERE ISN'T.
THIS IS AN ANY KIND OF AN
INDICATION OF CONCERN ABOUT THE
PATIENTS SEE THEIR- BUDGETS AS I

S. SO I'M A LITTLE LESS. FROM
LITTLE MR THIS BUT THANK YOU SO
MUCH MISTER CHAIR THANK YOU I'M
ON YOUR RIGHT OKAY I THINK YOU
MISTER AND MEMBERS THE COMMITTEE
I'M HERE TO PRESENT SENATE BILL
THREE SEVENTY FIVE OF THE CODE
NINETEEN EMPLOYER REGULATORY
COMPLIANCE AND TAX CREDITS. FOR
THREE YEARS NOW CALIFORNIAN
PLAYERS HAVE COME COMPLY WITH
STRINGENT EMERGENCY WORKPLACE
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS RELATIVE TO
COPE AT NINETEEN AND DURING THAT
TIME MORE THAN SIXTY ONE
THOUSAND CALIFORNIA BUSINESSES
PERMANENTLY CLOSED THEIR DOORS
AND ROUGHLY TWO POINT FIVE
MILLION CALIFORNIANS HAVE LOST
THEIR JOBS. SENATE BILL THREE
SEVENTY FIVE CREATES A TAX
CREDIT TO REIMBURSE EMPLOYERS
FOR THE COST OF COMPLYING WITH
NON EMERGENCY COBIT NINETEEN
WORKPLACE SAFETY REGULATIONS.
THAT WILL BE IN EFFECT FOR ALL
OF TWENTY TWENTY THREE AND
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. I WANT TO
MAKE CLEAR THAT SENATE BILLS
THREE SEVENTY FIVE IS NOT SAYING
THAT THE REGULATIONS ARE
UNNECESSARY. THIS BILL DOES NOT
WEIGH IN ON THE MERITS OF THE
REGULATION. SIMPLY KEEP IN MIND
THAT WHERE THERE ARE INCREASED
RISK OF CONTRACTING POPE AT
NINETEEN AT WORK. SUCH AS IN
HEALTHCARE SETTINGS. THERE IS
ALREADY A REGULATION IN PLACE TO
PROTECT HEALTHCARE WORKERS. BUT
THIS NEW REGULATION APPLIES TO
ALL WORKPLACES. AND IN DEALING
WITH PROTECTING PEOPLE FROM THE
COMMUNITY SPREAD A VIRUS THAT
RIGHT THIS REGULATION PLACES
INCREDIBLE COSTS ON EMPLOYERS.
AND MAKES EMPLOYERS TO SAFETY
THE SOCIAL SAFETY. NET FOR
GLOBAL HEALTH CHALLENGE. IF HE'S
REGULATE ARE NAY TO PER AGAINST
THE SPREAD OF KOBE. THE PRIMARY
PUBLIC POLICY PURPOSE IS
RELATIVE TO PUBLIC HEALTH AND
NOT IN DEALING WITH THE RISK
THAT IS INHERENT TO WORKPLACE
SAFETY. AND RECOGNIZING THAT SB
STEP THREE SEVENTY FIVE PROPOSES
TO SHIFT THE COST OF ACHIEVING.
THAT PUBLIC POLICY PURPOSE FROM
INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYERS BACK TO THE
STATE. IN SHORT THE STATE SHOULD
BE AT THE BACKSTOP FOR PUBLIC
HELP NOT OUR SMALL MOM AND POP
EMPLOYERS WHO ARE BARELY HANGING
ON. SENATE BILL THREE SEVENTY
FIVE PROVIDES THIS REIMBURSEMENT
BY MAKING CREDIT AVAILABLE TO
EMPLOYERS WHILE PAYING THEIR
PAYROLL TAXES. EDT IN THEIR
FINAL REPORT AT THE END OF THE
YEAR. WHEN AN EMPLOYER FILES THE
LAST REPORT THE EMPLOYER WILL
HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO CLAIM A
CREDIT FOR THE QUOTE UNQUOTE
VERY AFFABLE VARIABLE COSTS OF
COMPLYING WITH CODE NINETEEN
REGULATIONS. THAT CREDIT WOULD
BE CAPPED AT A HUNDRED DOLLARS
PER EMPLOYEE. FOR SMALL
EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYER WITH LESS
THAN A HUNDRED EMPLOYEES AND
FIFTY DOLLARS FOR EMPLOYEE FOR
LARGE EMPLOYERS. WITH ME TO
SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THIS BILL. R.
MICHAEL MILLER WITH THE
CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF WINE
GRAPE GROWERS AND SABRINA TO BIO
LA CARTE. THE CALIFORNIA
TRACTION IN PARKS ASSOCIATION.
THE SENATOR A WE CELEBRATE AND
YOU HAVE A COUPLE MINUTES EACH
TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT THANK. THANK
YOU CHARMER PRESENT THANK YOU
AUTHOR OB ITEMS MICHAEL BELL
OVER THE CALIFORNIA. ASSOCIATION
GROUP ARE WORST WITH A SPONSOR
OF THE SLUDGE. OUT THERE HER
KERR AND LEADERSHIP AND TAKE ON
THIS. JOINT IN HER DISH. THIS A
BIG ISSUE AND IT'S ACTUALLY
BIGGER FROM. GROWERS ALL CAL
WORKED. STILL RECOVERING FROM
THE TWENTY TWENTY PANDEMIC
WHERE. WE'RE DIRECT SALES ARE
SHUT DOWN WHY AM PRICES HOW TO
USE ESSENTIAL DIP AND THEY'RE
STILL IN RECOVERY. IN TWENTY
TWENTY WE FACE AN UNPRECEDENTED
GLOBAL PANDEMIC WE'RE OFFICE THE
SHUTDOWN SO TWENTY TWENTY TO
TWENTY TWENTY ONE. STATE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT CREATED POLICIES I
TOLD EMPLOYERS TO PAY EMPLOYEES
STAY AWAY FROM WORK IF THEY HAVE
CALLED IT OR FIFTY SYMPTOMS.
RECOGNIZE THIS IS INCREDIBLY
COSTLY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
ACT FIELD BEHIND ALL THOSE
COSTS. IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO
WE'RE COMING OUT OF THE
PANDEMIC. BUT THE STATE WANTED
TO MAKE SURE OF ALL
CALIFORNIANS. FACE NO PENALTY
GETTING TESTED OR VACCINATED. SO
LEGISLATURE PASSED LEGISLATION
REQUIRING EMPLOYERS TO PAY EVERY
EMPLOYEE FOR P. EIGHTY HOURS OF
LEAVE. TWENTY TWENTY TWO FOR
ANYTHING RELATED TO CALL THAT.
THEN IN DECEMBER OF EACH. BUT
ONLY FOR ONE YEAR. THEN JUST AND
NEW NOT. COVER YOU BRING WAS A
DAY FROM OF TWENTY TWENTY THREE.
AND TWENTY TWENTY. THOSE
REGULATIONS OF A TO BILL DOLLAR
ANNUAL COST WITH NO
REIMBURSEMENT TO COVER THOSE
COSTS. I'LL BE CLEAR WE'RE NOT
SAYING THAT COVERS OVER RUSSIA
THE COVERS BEHIND US BUT IT IS
NO LONGER WHAT IT WAS A TWENTY
TWENTY TWENTY TWENTY ONE OR
TWENTY TWO. THE NEW REGULATIONS
PRIMARILY FOCUS ON STOPPING THE
SPREAD OF A VIRUS IN THE
COMMUNITY. THIS IS NOT A UNIQUE
WORKPLACE EXPOSURE ISSUE WHERE
THERE'S AN INHERENT RISK. IN
DOING THE WORK THEREFORE IT ONLY
MAKES SENSE THAT LIKE ANY OTHER
PUBLIC HEALTH PROGRAM. THEY
SHOULD BE PAID FOR BY THE STATE
OR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NOT BY
EACH INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYER.
INITIAL STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR
THIS REGULATION REPAIR BY THE
OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY HEALTH
STANDARDS BOARD. GETS INTO MORE
DE ON THE- OF BENEFITS OF THIS
REGULATION. WHEN IT WHICH ARE
HIGHLIGHTED THE OPPOSITION'S
LETTER. I PAGE FORTY NINE THE
DOCUMENT SPECIFICALLY STATES ALL
BENEFITS ATTRIBUTED TO THE
PROPOSED REGULATION TRACED BACK
TO AVOID IT COVA NINETEEN
ILLNESSES. THE DOCUMENT THEN
GOES ON TO EXPLAIN HOW THE STATE
RELIED A COMMUNITY BASED DATA.
NOT HOW WORKER TRANSMITTAL DATA.
TO MAKE ITS CALCULATION OF
BENEFITS. IF THERE'S ANY
CONFUSION ABOUT THIS I'M PAGE
FOUR OF THE SAME DOCUMENT THE
DOCUMENT STATES THE FOLLOWING.
DATA FOR THE NUMBER OF KOBE
CASES THE NUMBER OF CASES OF
COVERED NINETEEN INSPECTION AND
NUMBER OF HOSPITALIZATIONS AND
DEATHS ATTRIBUTABLE TO WORKPLACE
EXPOSURE TO CARBON. IS NOT
CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. WE'VE ASKED
DATA FOR THREE YEARS THERE IS NO
DATA A WORKPLACE TRENDS MIDDLE
OF COLD. THEREFORE THE SNOW DAY
THAT WORK BASED TRANSMITTAL OF
COALBED THE ESTIMATION OF TENS
OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF
BENEFITS TO EMPLOYERS IS BASED
ON COMMUNITY SPREAD DATA. NOT
WORKER DATA AND TO BE CLEAR IF
THERE WERE REALLY TENS OF
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS BENEFITS TO
CALPERS IMPORT COMMUNITY WHY
WOULD EVERY INDUSTRY
ORGANIZATION IN THE STATE OPPOSE
THOSE REGULATIONS. THAT
ASSERTION IT JUST BUT- IT'S NOT
SUBSTANTIALLY REAL WELL LOOKING
AT ALL OF THIS COMMON SENSE
DICTATES THAT THIS REGULATIONS
PRIMARILY ABOUT A COMMUNITY
SPREAD PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE. IT'S
NOT ABOUT HELP THE SAFETY
CONCERN IN THE WORKPLACE. AND
THAT IS WHY WE BELIEVE.
EMPLOYERS RECOVERY FROM THE
PANDEMIC SHOULD NOT BE BURDENED
WITH THESE COSTS THAT'S OUR
RESPONSES OF THE BILL YOU WOULD
THINK THE AUTHOR AND WE ASK FOR
YOUR I. BOATS THANK YOU FOR. OUR
NEXT TO HER AND I WILL YOU
CHINA'S. WELL I'LL KEEP IT IN
THE MIDDLE HEARD THAT WE SEE THE
STABBING IS BORN. I'M GOOD
AFTERNOON THANK YOU. FOR THE- MY
NAME IS SABRINA TO MAIL LOCKHART
I AM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF
THE CALIFORNIA TRACTION SOME
PARKS ASSOCIATION. WE REPRESENT
PERMANENT AMUSEMENT PARKS WATER
PARKS ATTRACTIONS AND FAMILY
ENTERTAINMENT CENTERS ARE
MEMBERS ARE PUBLICLY TRADED
COMPANIES MULTI GENERATIONAL
FAMILY OWNED SMALL BUSINESSES
AND NONPROFITS. IN OUR INDUSTRY
WAS AMONG THE HARDEST HIT DURING
THE PANDEMIC SOME OF OUR MEMBERS
ARE CLOSE FOR FOURTEEN MONTHS.
DURING THAT TIME REMEMBER STILL
HELP THEIR COMMUNITIES WE OPEN
UP OUR PARKING LOTS FOR MASS
TESTING VACCINATION CLINICS AND
EVEN FOOD BANK GIVEAWAYS FOR
NEIGHBORS AND NEEDS. WE PUSH FOR
RESPONSIBLE RE OPENING BECAUSE
SAFETY IS AT THE CORE OF
EVERYTHING WE DO. KEEP IN MIND-
THE REGULATIONS IN PLACE TODAY
ARE SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR TO
WHEN THEY WERE INTRODUCED IN OUR
FIRST PASSED IN DECEMBER TWENTY
TWENTY. WITH THAT IN CONTEXT
THAT'S BEFORE WE HAD MAXINE'S A
READILY AVAILABLE TESTING AND
BOOSTERS THAT WERE AVAILABLE TO
EVERYONE OR EVEN ANTI VIRAL. AND
THAT WAS THE TIME OF THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT OFFERED A TAX CREDIT
AS WELL. THAT'S FOR TODAY AT.
THE BIRTH THE COST OF THE CUT
COMPLAINTS ARE STILL THERE AND
THEY'RE IN PLACE UNTIL. TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE AND THE FEDERAL TAX
CREDIT IS LONG GONE. I COMMITTEE
STAFF HANDED YOU A SUBSTANTIAL
PACKET OF PAPERS ONE ARE THE
REGULATIONS ARE VERY DETAIL
THERE ELEVEN PAGES LONG. AND
THEN THERE'S A SEPARATE DOCUMENT
THAT HELPS EMPLOYERS UNDERSTAND
THOSE REGULATIONS THAT IS ALMOST
TWO DOZEN PAGES LONG. YOU'VE
ALSO BEEN HANDED THE MODEL CODE
THE PREVENTION PLAN THAT
EMPLOYERS MUST FILL OUT ONCE
THEY PUT THEIR DETAILS AND THAT
IT'S ALMOST TWENTY PAGES LONG.
THERE'S ONE UNDERSCORE HOW
DETAILED THESE REGULATIONS ARE
OUR MEMBERS HAVE AT LEAST ONE
PERSON TASKED WITH ENSURING THAT
WERE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THESE
REGULATIONS IN ADDITION TO THE
MYRIAD OF OTHER WORKPLACE SAFETY
RULES THAT WE GLADLY FOLLOW. AND
IN SOME PARKS COMPLYING WITH
COCA NINETEEN REGULATIONS CAN
NEARLY BECOME AN ENTIRE FULL
TIME JOB. KEEP IN MIND IT'S
CLOSE CONTACT ISN'T JUST SIX
FEET WITHIN FIFTEEN MINUTES OR
FIFTEEN MINUTES WITHIN SIX FEET
LIKE IT HAD BEEN. FOR MOST OF
THE PANDEMIC. NOW EMPLOYERS HAVE
TO TAKE IN THE- CUBIC. OF
FOOTAGE OF THEIR WORK. SO
THERE'S RULES IF YOU'RE OVER
FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND CUBIC FEET
AND- UNDER FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND
CUBIC FEET. AT THIS POINT. AB

THANK YOU MISS CHAIR MEMBERS
SERAPH CAL THEY'VE FOR. YOUR
RESPECTFUL. AND WE THINK THE
AUTHOR AND HER STAFF FOR MEETING
WITH US- IN HEARING OUR CONCERNS
THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS- I WANT
TO START BY TALKING ABOUT THE
CAL OSHA- COBIT NINETEEN
PREVENTION STANDARD THAT IS IN
PLACE NOW- THIS IS A TRANSITION
FROM THE TEMPORARY STANDARD THAT
WAS PUT IN PLACE. AS AN
EMERGENCY PRECAUTION WHEN THE
PANDEMIC HIT THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT AND THE STATE
GOVERNMENT NOW THAT THE
EMERGENCY DECLARATIONS HAVE. ARE
OVER HAVE MOVED FROM THAT
EMERGENCY STANDARD INTO A
STANDARD THAT REFLECTS THE NEW
NORMAL THE FACT THAT THAT DOES
THE PANDEMIC HAS ABATED. IT'S
STILL PRESENT AND WE ARE FACING
THAT THE THREAT OF NEW PANDEMICS
THAT COULD SHUT DOWN THE ECONOMY
AS WELL AT ANY TIME. THE
CANDIDATE A NEW STANDARD- THE
NON EMERGENCY STANDARD IS VERY
SIMILAR TO THE TEMPORARY ONE
WITH A COUPLE AND ONE VERY
IMPORTANT DISTINCTION. THE
TEMPORARY STANDARD INCLUDED
EXCLUSION PAY THAT MEANT THAT
EMPLOYERS HAD TO PAY WORKERS
WHEN THEY WERE SENT HOME SO THAT
THEY COULD ROB RECOVER FROM COLD
IT. IN THIS STANDARD THERE IS NO
EXCLUSION. SO WORKERS ARE STARK
EMPLOYERS ARE STILL REQUIRED TO
SEND WORKERS HOME WHEN THEY HAVE
KOBE DURING THE- INFECTION
PERIOD. BUT THEY'RE NOT REQUIRED
TO PAY THAT. SO WORKERS HAVE TO
RELY ON THAT- THREE PAID SICK
DAYS THEY HAVE UNDER THE LAW IF
THEY STILL HAVE THEM OR EMPLOYER
AND HE'D PAID SICK DAYS BUT
THERE IS NO EXCLUSION PAY UNDER
THE STANDARD. THAT IS A HUGE
LOSS TO WORKERS- WHO DO NOT HAVE
THIS BENEFIT EMPLOYERS ARE DON'T
HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT WEEK- SO
THAT IS ONE BIG DIFFERENCE AND I
ONE OF THE REASONS. AFTER THAT
NOW THAT THERE'S NOT THE
EMERGENCY STATUS- STANDARDS THAT
THERE AREN'T THE SUBSIDIES THIS
IS THE NEW NORMAL- IN ADDITION
THEY HAVE BEEN BENEFITS TO
EMPLOYERS WITH THAT- THE
STANDARDS THE STANDARDS THAT
HAVE BEEN PUT IN PLACE. TO
REDUCE INFECTIONS TO KEEP
WORKERS HEALTHY TO KEEP
CUSTOMERS HEALTHY- SO THAT
BUSINESS AND THE ECONOMY THAT
SHOULD THRIVE- THIS IS NOT THE
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH THAT
ARE PUTTING OUT THESE
REGULATIONS. THIS IS CALLOW
SHACK THEY'RE IN CHARGE OF
WORKER HEALTH AND SAFETY IN THE
WORKPLACE AND IN ADDITION. WE IN
CALIFORNIA EXPECT NGUYEN LAWS
AND REGULATIONS ARE PASSED THAT.
BUSINESS INDIVIDUALS- WORKERS
COMPLY WITH THOSE AND DON'T HAVE
TO BE PAID TO COMPLY WITH LAWS
THAT ARE PASSED BY THE
LEGISLATION OR REGULATIONS THAT
ARE PASSED BY- BILL MAKING
BODIES. AND SO FOR THOSE REASONS
WE WOULD OPPOSE- AND ARGENEAU
THANK YOU. I AM VERY. SHE. ANY.

AFTERNOON CHAIR OF COMMITTEE
MEMBERS BUT JUST OVER HALF
SEASONS IN A BOOK INSTRUCTION.
WITH THE PROSPECT OF SB SEVENTY
FIVE THANKS IN A PORTANTINO FOR
THESE WILL SUPPORT BILL SB
SEVENTY FIVE IT COULD BE A LOT
OF LEGISLATION THAT WILL ENABLE
OUR SCHOOLS TO MEET THE
IMMEDIATE NEEDS OF STUDENTS WITH
QUALIFIED EDUCATORS. ARE FOR
LONG TERM SOLUTIONS TO COMBAT
THE COVERAGES SHORTAGE. I ALSO
WANT TO STRESS. THAT THIS BILL
IS CONSISTENT WITH PREVIOUS
EFFORTS TO PROVIDE GREATER
FLEXIBILITY FOR CAL STATE
RETIRED MEMBERS. TO ASSIST WITH
PRESSING STAFFING SHORTAGES. IT
HAS BEEN PROVEN TO BE AN
EFFECTIVE TOOL IN ADDRESSING
THESE ORDERS IN THE PAST. I ALSO
UNDERSTAND THAT IS GOING TO TAKE
A MULTI FACETED APPROACH TO
ADDRESS OUR TEACHER SHORTAGE.
THERE'S ONE PART OF THE
APPROACH. THE OTHER PARTS
INCLUDE DOUBLING THE TEACHER
RIGHT INSTAGRAM PROVIDING CAL
GRANT. PERSPECTIVE TEACHERS WILL
BE CRITICAL TO BUILDING OUT OUR
OUR ROBUST TEACHER PIPELINE.
THIS THREE PRONGED APPROACH TO
BE INTEGRAL TO ENSURING ARE AT
LEAST A RIPOSTE TEACHER
WORKFORCE. TO ENSURE OUR
CHILDREN RECEIVE THE BEST
POSSIBLE EDUCATION. FOR THESE
REASONS THE SUPERINTENDENT'S
PROUD TO SPONSOR S. B. SINCE THE
FIVE. IN ORDER AND I WILL. TRY
TO BE A SIX SPOT THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. ARE YOU A SACK WE'D- MR.
PORTANTINO WAS SOMEBODY'S. AND
SELL IDENTIFY SO. WHAT I CAN DO
THAT I. WELL TO. THANK YOU-
BUCKLEY ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HEARD
ME ON THE EDGE. CA OF LEFT SO
YOU'RE ALL FIRST TIME ON MY
SPEECH- THANK YOU FOR ME HERE-
I'M HERE TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE
BIT OF THE OF WHAT IT WILL LIKE
IN THE CLASSROOM. AS KNOW WE
HAVE A TEACHER SHE- AND THERE'S
ALSO A LACK OF QUALIFIED
SUBSTANCE- MY MISSION AS A
PRINCIPAL THEM PRETTY PASSIONATE
ABOUT IS TO DRIVE THE
INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM. AND WHEN
THERE'S AN ABSENCE OR VACANCY.
MAKE SURE THAT MY STUDENTS HAVE
INSTRUCTIONAL CONTINUITY AND
ENSURE THAT MY STUDENTS ARE IN A
SAFE SPACE. DURING MY TWENTY
YEARS IN SCHOOLS I HAVEN'T SEEN
THE HIGH LEVEL OF VACANCIES ARE
ABSENCES BUT I HAVE IN RECENT
YEARS. IN MORE THAN 25% OF MY
POSITIONS AT MY SCHOOL THIS YEAR
WERE VACANT- I SOUGHT TO FILL
THOSE VACANCIES WITH RETIRED
TEACHERS WHO ARE WILLING TO
WORK. ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THEY
WERE STILL IN THE HUNDRED AND
EIGHTY DAY WAIT PERIOD OR THEY
HAD REACHED THEIR EARNINGS CAP.
AND THEREFORE UNABLE TO STEP IN
THAT MEANT THAT INSTEAD OF
HAVING EXPERIENCED AND
CREDENTIALED EDUCATOR WITH THE
KNOWLEDGE TO CREATE A SAFE
SPACE. WHERE STUDENTS COULD
STILL EXPERIENCE ACADEMIC
SUCCESS. INSTEAD OF HAVING AN
EXPERIENCED EDUCATOR WHO COULD
TEACH TO THE STANDARDS WITH OR
WITHOUT A LESSON PLAN. CLASSES
WERE SPLIT UP. OR WHEN WE COULD
GET THEM THEY HAD SUBSTITUTES
AND IN THE LATTER CASE. JUST SO
THAT YOU KNOW THIS IS WHAT'S IN
MY STUDENTS EXPERIENCED. SUBS
WERE ON THEIR PHONES ALL DAY-
SAM'S SUBS WHO HAD STUDENTS
PLAYING GAMES ALL DAY. WATCH
MOVIES ALL DAY DO PUSH UPS IN
ORDER TO BE ABLE TO USE THE
RESTROOM WHICH I BELIEVE IS- TO
BE FAIR. THIS IS A ALWAYS THE
CASE BUT TRY AS WE MIGHT
PRINCIPLES CANNOT ALWAYS PROVIDE
SUPPORT TO THOSE BRAVE ENOUGH TO
COME INTO THE CLASSROOMS A
SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS. SB SEVEN
SIXTY FIVE WILL GO A LONG WAY TO
REMOVING THE BARRIERS TO THOSE
WHO WANT TO CONTINUE. TO SERVE
OUR STUDENTS AND SUPPORT THOSE
WHO WANT TO ENTER THE
PROFESSION. THUS ENSURING OUR
STUDENTS RECEIVE. QUALITY
INSTRUCTION DESPITE A HIGH
NUMBER OF VACANCIES WERE
ABSENCES. RETIRED TEACHERS HAVE
A WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE AND
EXPERIENCE IF YOU COULD BEGIN TO
WRAP I CAN. AND I WILL THEY
BRING A LOT OF GOOD STUFF TO THE
CLASSROOM I'M JUST GOING TO SAY
THAT THEY CAN TEACH. THEY CAN
MENTOR THEY FILL LAND AND DO
REALLY GOOD STUFF FOR KIDS. I'M
THAT'S REALLY THE GIST OF WHAT I
HAVE TO SAY SAFE CONTINUED
LEARNING THAT'S REALLY WHAT I'M
AFTER. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

ARM FILE ITEM TEN. US SENATOR
LEE MON. SO BILL FIVE TWENTY SIX
WELCOME TO THE- OF THE
COMMISSION. THANK YOU ACTING
CHAIR I'D LIKE TO START BY
ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEES
AMENDMENTS SB FIVE TO SIX WILL
REQUIRE THE DEPARTMENT OF
INDUSTRIAL LABOR RELATIONS TO
CREATE. A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
AWARENESS POSTER WITH IMPORTANT
INFORMATION LIKE THE PHONE
NUMBER FOR THE NATIONAL DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE HOTLINE. THESE POSTERS
WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR BUSINESSES
TO POST IN BREAK ROOMS AND
COMMON AREAS BUT WILL NOT BE
REQUIRED. THE WORKPLACE CAN BE
ONE OF A FEW PLACES WHERE A
PERSON CAN BE AWAY FROM THEIR
ABUSER. THIS CAN BE AN IDEAL
SPACE FOR A PERSON TO RECEIVE
INFORMATION ABOUT DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE HOTLINE AND OFFER.
OTHER ASSISTANCE AND RESOURCES
SEVERAL OTHER STATES LIKE OREGON
WASHINGTON AND OHIO HAVE CREATED
SIMILAR POSTERS FOR THE
WORKPLACE. AS A TOOL TO HELP
SURVIVORS REDUCE WORKPLACE
VIOLENCE. I WITH ME TODAY WE
HAVE KEN OPLINGER EXECUTIVE
DRESSED DIRECTOR OF EXIT OF
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SOLUTIONS TO
SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE BILL YOU

FOUR HOUR HOTLINE FOR DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE. SURVIVORS IN THE

SHELTER BEDS ACROSS TO SHELTERS.
WE ALSO WANT A NUMBER OF
PROGRAMS TO HELP FOLKS WERE
EXPERIENCING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
ON AVERAGE NEARLY TWENTY PEOPLE
PER MINUTE. ARE PHYSICALLY
ABUSED BY AN INTIMATE PARTNER
UNITED STATES AND IN FACT IN A
PARTNER VIOLENCE ACCOUNTS 415%
OF ALL VIOLENT CRIME IN THIS
COUNTRY. THE PREVALENCE OF
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HAS NEGATIVE
IMPACTS ON ALL PARTS OF OUR
SOCIETY INCLUDING IN THE
WORKPLACE. DRIVERS CAN BE
DISTRACTED AT WORK MISS WORK
ARRIVE LATE OR LEAVE EARLY. AND
BE MORE LIKELY TO LEAVE THEIR
JOB. 54% OF EMPLOYERS HAVE
REPORTED THAT DOMESTIC ABUSE
BECAUSE THE QUALITY OF THE
EMPLOYEES WERE TO SUFFER AND 56%
SAID IT LED TO ABSENTEEISM. SB
FIVE TWENTY SIX WILL ENSURE THAT
EMPLOYEES HAVE INFORMATION
READILY AVAILABLE TO THEM ABOUT
HOW THEY CAN ADDRESS THE IMPACTS
AND ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS HAVING
ON THEIR LIVES. BY USING THE
WORKPLACE POSTERS SYSTEM ALREADY
IN PLACE WE CAN EASILY PROVIDE
NATIONAL AND LOCAL CONTACT
INFORMATION FOR DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE SERVICES DIRECTLY TO
EMPLOYERS. THIS INFORMATION WILL
PROVIDE ACCESS TO PROGRAMS LIKE
OURS AT DBS ALL ACROSS
CALIFORNIA. GIVING SURVIVORS THE
HELPING MEET. ONCE IN OUR
PROGRAMS IN ADDRESSING THEIR
TRAUMA SURVIVORS CAN MORE
QUICKLY BUILD NEW LIVES AWAY
FROM THEIR ABUSER OR GET BACK TO

PRODUCTIVITY IMPACTS FOR
CALIFORNIA'S EMPLOYERS. ALL
FORTY WILL ALSO BE JOINING A
NUMBER OF OTHER STATES A CENTER

THANK YOU. THANK. S. B. OUR
OFFICE HE- FOR WORK. ASK WE
SHOULD USE THAT. YOUR. RIGHT
WELL HEAR ME OKAY. THEIR ACCOUNT
TRADITIONALLY FABRICATION OF
CUSTOM SHEET METAL DUCTS WERE
HERE HEATING VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING SYSTEMS. TOOK PLACE
AT A JOB SITE ADVANCES IN
PREFABRICATION TOOLS AND
PRACTICES NOW ALLOW THE
FABRICATION OF CUSTOM SHEET
METAL DUCTS EITHER ON SITE OR
OFF SITE OFFSITE FABRICATION
INCREASES SAFETY PRODUCTIVITY
AND EFFICIENCY BY USING
PERMANENTLY INSTALLED COMPUTER
GUIDED PLASMA CUTTERS AND BY
ALLOWING PROJECT PLANNERS TO
SCHEDULE THE NEEDED FABRICATION
AT EACH STAGE OF CONSTRUCTION.
UNFORTUNATELY OFFSITE CUSTOM
APPLICATION HAS ALSO BEEN USED
TO INCREASE DEVELOPER AND
CONTRACTOR PROFITS BY INVADING
PREVAILING WAGE REQUIREMENTS. A
TWO THOUSAND AND FOURTEEN
APPELLATE COURT DECISION UP HELD
THE DETERMINATION THAT POPS I
CUSTOM FABRICATION OF METAL IS
NOT SUBJECT TO PREVAILING WAGE
EVEN THOUGH THE SAME WORK WOULD
BE IF IT WERE PERFORMED AT A JOB
SITE. THIS CREATES AN INCENTIVE
FOR CONTRACTORS TO EVADE
PREVAILING WAGE BY CONSTRUCTING
SIGNIFICANT PORTIONS OF THEIR
PROJECTS OUTSIDE THE LOCAL AREA
USING LOW WAGE WORKERS THAT
DON'T HAVE THE SAME PROTECTIONS
OF A PREVAILING WAGE. ALLOWING
THIS TO CONTINUE TO CONTINUE
UNDERMINE STATE PREVAILING WAGE
POLICY AND DENIES WORKERS THEIR
RIGHTFUL WAGES SB EIGHT THIRTY
WOULD FOLLOW THE LEAD OF OTHER
STATES. THAT HAVE SPECIFIED
OFFSITE CUSTOM FABRICATION OF
SHEET METAL FOR H. FAX SYSTEMS.
IS ITSELF A PUBLIC WORK THIS
WILL ENSURE OFFSITE FABRICATION
IS USED TO BENEFIT THE
EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY OF PUBLIC
PROJECTS NOT TO DODGE PREVAILING
WAGE. I HAVE WITH ME TODAY FROM
THE WESTERN STATES COUNCIL
SHEETMETAL WORKER SCOTT WEDGE TO
TESTIFY IN SUPPORT AND ROB
STOKER TO ANSWER ANY TECHNICAL
QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE ON THIS
ISSUE. WORKED WITH C. SOUTHWEST
. THE HE OVER THERE- AS VERY
WELL. THE LADY YEAH. I'M SORRY
SKEWS ME. AS YOU KNOW. POINTS
OUT THE BURKE OF PER WAGE TO
ENSURE THAT LOCAL RATE. ARE NOT
D. VAN. BY A RACE THE- IN THAT
WE PROVIDE A LEVEL FIELD FOR ALL
CONTRACTORS UNFORTUNATELY A VERY
POOR- APPELLATE COURT DECISION
FROM A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO
CREATES A SITUATION WHERE- SHEET
METAL DUCT ANOTHER SHEET METAL
SYSTEMS THAT ARE ENGINEERED AND
DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR
SPECIFIC PROJECTS. NOT DUCT WORK
DO YOU GO BY AT HOME DEPOT OR
OFF THE SHELF FROM A WHOLESALER.
BUT DUCKS THAT HAVE BEEN
DESIGNED AND ENGINEERED
SPECIFICALLY FOR A PROJECT. ARE
EXEMPT FROM PREVENTING WAGE IF
THEY'RE FABRICATED OFF SITE.
THIS BILL ATTEMPTS TO CLOSE WHAT
WE BELIEVE IS AN UNFORTUNATE
LOOPHOLE VERY NEARLY CRAFTED-
I'D LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THE
OPPOSITION MY VERY DEAR FRIEND
SCOTT GOVERNOR WHO WILL BE
COMING UP HERE SHORTLY. IS GOING
TO ARGUE THAT IF WE DO THIS. THE
PREVENT WAGE ENFORCEMENT WILL
BE. VERY DIFFICULT TO DO. IN
PREVENT WAGES COMMITTEE AS WELL
WHERE IF YOU DO WORK ON A
PROVIDE A PROJECT SITE ON A
PUBLIC WORKS JOB YOU HAVE TO
PROVIDE A CERTIFIED PAYROLL-
EVERY PAY PERIOD. THIS SHOULD BE
NO DIFFERENT TO COMPLY WITH THIS
A CONTRACTOR COULD CHOOSE JUST
TO FABRICATE THE DUCT WORK ON
SITE IN WHICH THEY WOULD THEN
OBVIOUSLY COMPLY A PREVAILING
WAGE IF THEY CHOOSE TO CONTINUE
TO DO IT OFFSITE IT A
PREFABRICATION SHOP. THEY WOULD
STILL JUST SUBMIT THE SAME
PAYROLL SO THAT THEN THE DIR AND
OTHER ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES COULD
MAKE SURE THERE'S COMPLIANCE I
HAVE WITH ME TODAY ROB STOKER
THE POLITICAL DIRECTOR FOR SHEEP
NO LOCAL- ONE OF FOUR TO
TESTIFY. AND FOR TECHNICAL
ISSUES AT THOMOND SO OUR LEGAL
COUNSEL THANK. GOOD AFTERNOON
CHAIR COMMITTEE ROB STOKER SHEET
METAL WORKERS I'LL JUST QUICKLY
ADD THAT. EVERYTHING THAT THAT
SCOTT JUST MENTIONED IS TRUE AND
WHAT THE AUTHOR SAID. BUT ALSO
WE'RE SEEING NOW THAT WORKERS
ARE ACTUALLY BEING DISPLACED SO.
JUST OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST
TO SAY TWENTY YEARS AND I'VE
BEEN IN THIS ALMOST FORTY YEARS
AND HAVE GONE THROUGH EVERY
LEVEL FROM. PRE APPRENTICE
APPRENTICE JOURNEYMAN- GENERAL
FOREMEN AND FINALLY BEFORE I
CAME OVER AND WAS ABLE TO
REPRESENT SHEET METAL WORKERS.
IRAN THE SHEET METAL DIVISION
ONE OF THE LARGEST. MECHANICAL
CONTRACTORS IN THE EAST BAY I
KNOW THIS INDUSTRY. PART OF WHAT
MY JOB WAS JUST TO HOW DO WE
BRING JOBS IN QUICKER ON TIME
SAFER PART OF THAT WAS WHATEVER
WE COULD DO IN A SHOP. WHERE WE
COULD CONTROL THE ENVIRONMENT
THE SAFETY ALL OF THOSE THINGS
THE COORDINATION LET'S DO THAT.
AND THEN WE'LL BRING IT OUT TO
THE FIELD ANNALYNNE STALL IT
QUICKER MORE EFFICIENTLY ALL
THOSE THINGS. WELL FOR UNION
CONTRACTOR THAT'S FINE BUT IT
GOES BACK TO KIND OF CLOSING
THIS LOOPHOLE WHERE SOME MAY
CHOOSE TO DO THINGS ON SITE
SUMMIT USED TO DO THINGS
OFFSITE. TECHNOLOGY IS MOVING
SOME OF THESE JOBS OFFSITE.
WE'RE NOT IN THESE PROJECTS WHEN
THE STEEL IS GOING UP AND
FIGURING OUT WHERE THE DOCTOR ON
IS GOING TO GO. IT'S ALL DONE
OFFSIDE ON A COMPUTER-
PREFABRICATION WE USED TO BRING
THE PIECES OUT ONE BY ONE
ASSEMBLY HERE AND NOT. AT THE
BUILDING THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN
IT'S CREE MANUFACTURED
PREFABRICATED AND LARGE
COMPONENTS. THEN ARE BROUGHT OUT
TO THE PROJECT SO AGAIN THAT'S
PART OF WHAT IT IS TECHNOLOGY IS
CHANGING JOBS. AND THESE WORKERS
DESERVE THESE PREVAILING WAGE-
PROTECTION CELL I'LL JUST LEAVE
IT AT THAT LETS YOU HAD ANY
QUESTIONS. NO BUT AS A COMMITTEE
THAT GOT MOVED OFF. SITE TODAY
WE CAN UNDERSTAND. NOT AT ALL IN
THE HOPE TO STILL PAID. MISTER
CHAIR- MEMBERS COMMITTEE CHRIS
WHY A THE CALIFORNIA SHEET METAL
AIR CONDITIONING CONTRACTORS
ASSOCIATION WE ARE SIGNATORY
WITH THE SMART UNION- THEY ARE
BROTHERS AND SISTERS WE WORK
TOGETHER YOU SUPPORT AVAILING
WAGE WE DO HAVE TO THE B. TWO
SECTION ONLY SO. WE'VE GOT TO-
TO SUBMIT WINNERS. ARMY TWEENER
. THERE'S NO EXTRA TIME FOR THAT
WHICH I GOT IT IF YOU WANT TO
SPEAK IN OPPOSITION YOU CAN THAT
. YOU KNOW IF WE HAVE. IF WE
HAVE SOMETHING AVAILABLE IN THE
FOUR MINUTES BUT WE'RE BEYOND
THAT APOLOGIST COMMITTEE RULE I
GOT TO. BE THE SAME WITH
EVERYBODY OR- WHATEVER FIRST
AMENDMENT LAWSUIT ON MY HANDS.
YES THERE ARE BLOCKS CALIFORNIA
LABOR FEDERATION IN SUPPORT
THANK YOU. THANK YOU ALL RIGHT
ANYONE ELSE WHO WISHES TO
EXPRESS SUPPORT NAME AND
AFFILIATION ON THIS PARTICULAR
BILL- SEE NO ONE'S COME FORWARD-
NOW WILL MOVE TO OPPOSITION IS
OR IN OPPOSITION WE WITNESS.
MISTER CHAIR MEMBER SCOTT
GOVERNOR BEHALF OF CONSTRUCTION
EMPLOYERS ASSOCIATION OUR
MEMBERS ARE SIGNATORIES TO THE
CARPENTERS AND LABORS. WE HAVE A
VESTED INTEREST IN ENSURING THE
LONG TERM LONGEVITY OF THE UNION
CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY. WE DON'T
BELIEVE THIS MEASURE IS THE
RIGHT APPROACH NOR DO WE BELIEVE
THAT WE ARE INVADING ANYTHING
BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A LAW OF THE
LAND SO WE OPERATE TODAY- ON.
THIS MEASURE IS VERY SIMPLE AND
IN BEING SO SIMPLE THERE A WHOLE
HOST OF QUESTIONS THAT REMAIN.
UNANSWERED UP MY DIFFERENT SCOTT
WHICH IS RIGHT JUST HAVE TO BE
CERTIFIED PAYROLL RECORDS
HOWEVER WHEN A WORKERS ON SITE.
WE KNOW THE AMOUNT OF TIME THERE
THERE ON THAT PROJECT HERE IN A
FABRICATION SHOP THAT WORKER
CONFORM WORK ON A PUBLIC WORKS
PROJECT A PRIVATE WORKS PROJECT.
OR A DIFFERENT PUBLIC WORKS
PROJECT IN THE SAME DAY.
THEREFORE THERE IS AN ISSUE FOR
LIABILITY FOR US IN TRACKING
THOSE HOURS AND WHAT WAGE RATES
BECAUSE THAT WAGE RATE WILL
CHANGE DEPENDING UPON THE WORK
THEIR PERFORMANCE. IT'S UNCLEAR
HOW THIS WOULD WORK WE DON'T
KNOW WHICH PREVAILING WAGE IS
APPLICABLE PROPONENT SPOKE ABOUT
INSURING KIND OF A LOCAL WORK
FORCE. IS THE WORKER FABRICATING
A PROJECT IN FRANCE NOW.
ENTITLED TO THE SAME WAGES. AT
THAT WILL PROJECT IS BEING BUILT
IN SAN FRANCISCO WHICH
PREVAILING WAGE APPLIES. YOU
KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT THAT'S
ON THE BILL WE DON'T KNOW WHAT
WAGE RATE IS DUE. ARE THEY GONNA
HAVE TO IS THE ARE GONNA HAVE TO
WAIT SURVEY BECAUSE THIS IS A
MANUFACTURER. ARE THEY GOING TO
WAGE SURVEY FOR MANUFACTURING IN
SAN FRANCISCO FOR EXAMPLE OVER
THE PRODUCT IS MADE IN FRESNO.
AGAIN WE DON'T HAVE ANY ANSWER
TO THAT WHAT IS NON STANDARD. IF
YOU BY DR HOME DEPOT AND CUT AN
INCH PERSPEX VACATIONS. THAT
CASTING A NON STANDARD
FABRICATED ITEMS. WE DON'T KNOW
DOESN'T SAY THAT- AND THEN WHAT
HAPPENS THE PRODUCTS ARE
PRODUCED IN OTHER STATES OR
COUNTRIES WITH THE STATE HAS NO
JURISDICTION. CALIFORNIA CAN'T
SIMPLY SAY. PRODUCTS AMERICANA
CAN'T COMMIT BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT
BEING PAID CALIFORNIA LEADS. OF
COMMERCE CLAUSE PROBLEM THERE WE
DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS- AND
THEN LASTLY GIVEN THE STATE'S
INTEREST IN HOUSING. WHICH MANY
ARE PROJECTS OF DRILLING WAGES
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A FAIRLY
STEEP. INCREASE IN PRICING. BUT
THE NINE YOU RATE TO. WEIGHT
RATES FOR SAN FRANCISCO. THAT
COULD. TRIPLE THE WAGES AGAIN.
WE HAVE A VESTED IN IN THE
LAUNCH OF THE UNIT CONSTRUCTION
MARKET. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT
MEASURES LIKE YES- PUSHED THE
UNION SECTOR EXCLUSIVELY TO
PUBLIC WORKS WHICH OVER THE LONG
RUN IS NOT HEALTHY FOR THE
MARKET SO WE ARE. WE SHOULD
GOVERNOR. I CAN ASK QUESTIONS
FIRST. ARE ARE YOU SUGGESTING OF
THE PREVAILING WAGE THAT IT
SHOULD BE THE HIGHER OF THE TWO
GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS BECAUSE I'M
PRETTY SURE OF THE AUTHOR WOULD
CONSIDER THAT I'M NOT SUGGESTING
ACTUALLY WHERE THE PRODUCT IS
ACTUALLY. ADVOCATE WELL AS
OPPOSED FOR IT'S INSTALLED- WILL
SUGGEST YOU. TO WORK ON THAT
ISSUE THANK YOU. OKAY SIR ANYONE
ELSE THAT WAS SO. DOES NEED TO
BE A LEAD OPPOSITION WITNESS ON
THIS BILL. ANYONE WHO WISHES TO
EXPRESS OPPOSITION ON THIS BILL.
NAME AFFILIATION OPPOSITION- NOW
WILL GO TO THE TELECOM SINUS
MODERATOR- TO BRING FORWARD
ANYONE WHO WISHES TO EXPRESS BY
TELECONFERENCE OPPOSITION OR
SUPPORT. THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR
FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO SPEAK IN
SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION TO THIS
BILL PLEASE PRESS ONE THEN. ZERO
M. S. CHAIR WE HAVE ONE PERSON
IS SIGNAL THEY WISH TO SPEAK
WE'RE GOING TO GO TO LINE ONE
THIRTY TWO YOUR LINE IS NOW OPEN
. GOOD AFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN AND
MEMBERS RICHARD MARCUSSEN FOR
THE WESTERN ELECTRICAL
CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION. WEEK IS
VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS BILL'S
IMPACT ON OTHER MATERIALS AND WE
ARE CLOSED THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE MISTER
RADHA CHAIR THERE ISN'T. MISTER
CHAIR THERE IS NO ONE ELSE TO
SIGNAL THAT THEY WISH TO SPEAK.
THANK YOU TO GIVE ME A CHANCE TO
SAY THAT- CRUCIATE YOUR EFFORT
AND WE WILL- AT THIS POINT COME
BACK TO THE COMMITTEE MORE
COMMENTS. SENATE GROWS ANYTHING
. YES IF I COULD IF I COULD ASK
ONE OF THE WITNESSES TO COMMENT
YOU. OKAY YES- WAS TO WHICH
COULD YOU RESPOND TO. THE ISSUES
RAISED BY THE OPPOSITION. YES
THANK YOU SENATOR- I CONSIDER
THOSE ARGUES TO BE COMPLETE
CANARDS. THE TODAY IS VERY
COMMON ON CONSTRUCTION JOBSITES
PROVIDING WAGE JOB SITES FOR ONE
OF OUR MEMBERS TO BE ON THE
PRINT ON AT THE SCHOOL JOB SITE
FOR THREE OR FOUR HOURS. AND
THEN GET CALLED BY THE
CONTRACTOR TO GO TO A PRIVATE
JOB. AND THE CONTRACTOR JUST
KEEPS A RECORD OF HOW MANY HOURS
WORKED A CERTIFIED PAYROLL. IS
THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF HOURS YOU
WORK ON THE PREVAILING WAGE JOB
IS VERY COMMON IN CONSTRUCTION
FOR WORKERS TO MOVE ON AND OFF
PRIVATE TO PUBLIC. ALL THE TIME
ON THE GEOGRAPHICAL ISSUE THE-
THAT PREVENT WAGE RATE WHICH
WOULD APPLY WOULD BE OF COURSE.
AT THE SITE WHERE THE JOB THE
PUBLIC WORKS IS ACTUALLY
LOCATED. AND A CONTRACTOR TO GET
AROUND- COULD AVOID ANY OF THOSE
CONCERNS BY SIMPLY FABRICATING
MATERIAL ON SITE AND THEN. THE
ASSERTION THAT THIS COULD LEAD
TO A 3100% INCREASE IN LABOR
WAGES IN SAN FRANCISCO IS
LAUGHABLE. WE ALL KNOW THAT
LABOR IS 17% OF A CONSTRUCTION
JOB I DON'T KNOW I DIDN'T MAJOR
IN MATH. BUT EVEN IF THIS WAS IF
LABOR COSTS WERE. 103% HIGHER
WHICH OF COURSE THEY WOULDN'T BE
THAT WOULD NOT INCREASE THE
TOTAL. COST OF THE PROJECT BY
3100% LABOUR'S ONLY 17100% WE
WOULD ARGUE THAT THIS IS A
PREVAILING WAGE AVOIDANCE. AND
ACTUALLY THEY DID THEY'RE
AVOIDING PAIN WHAT THE ORIGINAL
INTENDED FOR- INTENSIFIES SUB

PROJECT PROGRAM FOCUSED ON
PROVIDING ACCESS TO WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT TRAINING. AND
EDUCATION WITH THE GOAL OF
HELPING THEM GAIN EMPLOYMENT IN
INDUSTRIES OF SERVICE A CRITICAL
PART OF CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMIC
FUTURE AND ECONOMY. CALIFORNIA
MISTER CHAIRMAN AND COLLEAGUES
AS RAPIDLY AS I'VE SAID ON MANY
OF MY BILLS THIS SESSION ON
BECOMING A TALE OF TWO
ECONOMISTS. ARE FRANKLY ONE THAT
IS DISTINGUISHED BETWEEN ENTRY
LEVEL AND LOW WAGE WORKERS. WITH
THAT DESPITE THE FACT THAT WE
HAVE SOME OF THE MOST GENEROUS
SOCIAL SAFETY NET PROGRAMS AND
MINIMUM WAGE STANDARDS AND ALSO
EXPERIENCE- AND SUFFER FROM ONE
OF THE HIGHEST- POP WORKING
POVERTY RATES IN THE NATION. THE
DISTINCTION BETWEEN THOSE
WORKERS AND SOME OF THE GREATEST
WEALTH. IN THE STATE IN THE
NATION AND DATE INDEED AROUND
THE WORLD. AND ALSO THE
DISTINCTION IN THE DISPARITY
BETWEEN. OFTEN RURAL POOR AREAS-
AND WEALTHY COASTAL REGIONS. A
GROWING PERCENTAGE OF THESE
HISTORICALLY DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES ACROSS CALIFORNIA.
FIND THEMSELVES ECONOMICALLY
STRANDED RURAL AND INLAND
COMMUNITIES TEND TO HAVE HIGHER
UNEMPLOYMENT RATES. LOWER LEVELS
OF EDUCATION WHICH IS COMPLETED
IN MORE FAMILIES STRUGGLING. TO
PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE ACCORDING
TO THE LITTLE HOOVER COMMISSION
INLAND AND RURAL REGIONS ARE THE
MOST IMPACTED BY CLIMATE CHANGE.
AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION AND
THE MOST VULNERABLE. TO
POTENTIAL JOB LOSSES FOR
MEASURES DESIGNED TO ADDRESS
CLIMATE CHANGE THAT PRODUCE
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES
CONSEQUENCES IRONICALLY. MANY OF
THE RESOURCES AND WORK FORCES IN
THESE AREAS OF THE STATE. ARE
AREAS THAT CALIFORNIA LOOKS TO
FOR THE FUTURE ECONOMY OF OUR
STATE. ADDRESSING THE GAP
BETWEEN THE TWO CALIFORNIA
ECONOMIES IS REITERATED BY THE
STATE'S FUTURE WORKFORCE
COMPENSATION. WHO STATE THAT
QUOTE JUST FIVE LARGE CALIFORNIA
COUNTIES MAKE UP MORE THAN TWO
THIRDS OF CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMY
IN TERMS OF ECONOMIC OUTPUT. AND
EMPLOYMENT. MEANS THAT ALL OF
OUR JOBS ECONOMIC GROWTH IS
DRIVEN IN FIVE OF THE FIFTY NINE
COUNTIES ACROSS THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA PUT SIMPLY
CALIFORNIA'S CURRENT APPROACH.
TO MEETING THESE AMBITIOUS GOALS
ARE UNSUSTAINABLE. FUNDING FOR
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS
REMAINS LARGELY INACCESSIBLE FOR
WORLD LOW INCOME AND UNDER
INVESTED COMMUNITIES. ACROSS THE
STATE. THESE ARE THE COMMUNITIES
HIT HARDEST BY THIS REALITY WE
CAN'T ALLOW JOBS TO DISAPPEAR AS
INDUSTRIES CHANGE. AND ALLOW
ENTIRE SECTIONS OF OUR STATE.
WITHOUT THE ECONOMIC DRIVERS
THAT WERE PRESENT. FOR MANY
PRIOR GENERATIONS WE CANNOT
LEAVE THESE CALIFORNIANS
STRANDED WILL NEED SIGNIFICANT
ADDITIONS TO A TRAINED AND
SKILLED WORKFORCE IS TO GROW OUR
CLEAN ENERGY INDUSTRIES AND OUR
FUTURE ECONOMY. THESE TRAINING
PROJECTS MUST BE MADE AVAILABLE
TO ALL OF CALIFORNIA NOT JUST
CONCENTRATED IN A FEW REGIONS
AND THIS IS WHY I INTRODUCED
THIS BILL WOULD ESTABLISH THE
EQUITABLE ACCESS TO JOB
OPPORTUNITY PILOT PROGRAM. TO
PROVIDE INDIVIDUALS FROM RURAL
OR LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES WITH
FINANCIAL AID FOR WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT TRAINING AND
EDUCATION IN EXCHANGE FOR THEIR
COMMITMENT OF SERVICE TO THE
STATE AND HELPING US ACTUALLY
ACHIEVE. THESE GOALS IT WOULD
IDENTIFY EMERGING INDUSTRIES IN
FOCUS TRAINING PROGRAMS ON THE
SECTOR'S GRADING WORK FORCE
WHICH WOULD BE SPECIALIZED. IN
MODERNIZING CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMY
WE CANNOT AFFORD TO CONTINUE TO
PUSH FORWARD BY ONLY BRINGING
CERTAIN COMMUNITIES WITH US.
WITH ME TODAY I HAVE MARCOS SR
RESET I GOT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
OF LA COOPERATIVE COMPANIES CENA
AND FOLLOWING HIS TESTIMONY
MISTER CHAIRMAN COLLEAGUES I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
. THANK YOU CENTER AND WELCOME
TO THE PODIUM YOU MAY PROCEED.
ZURCHER ARM- I THINK THE BUTTONS
OFF. CAR GREENLIGHT OKAY. IF YOU
WANT TO REPEAT ANYTHING. LAST
NIGHT I JUST SAID THAT MARK. THE
MEMBERS MEDICAL SYSTEMS THAT ARE
AND OF COURSE FROM THE EXECUTIVE
DIRECTOR OF LUCK BUT IF YOU
ACCOMPLISH ENOUGH. ARM I'M HERE
TO TESTIFY ARE. ONCE REYES
RECEIVED THIRTY FOUR TO CREATE A
PROGRAM FOLK. ON PROVIDING TO
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT. SERVICES
IN EXCHANGE FOR HELPING THE
STATE YOU KNOW EMISSIONS GOALS
AND DRIVING LOCAL ECONOMY.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGO BUT THE
ACCOMPLISHING NATIONAL SUPPORT
OF SB FIVE BEFORE BECAUSE OF HIS
FOCUS ENSURING ACCESS THROUGH
THE GREEN ECONOMY FOR ALL OF
CALIFORNIA AND MOST IMPORTANTLY.
EVEN RURAL COMMUNITIES. BUT IF
YOU LOOK AT I HAVE BEEN AROUND
FOR OVER YEARS AND PRIMARILY
PROVIDING SERVICES TO THE
FARMWORKERS THROUGHOUT THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA. ESPECIALLY
FOCUSING ON EMPLOYMENT AND
TRAINING. UNFORTUNATELY GIVEN
THE UNDER INVESTMENT OF WORKERS
DOLLARS IN RURAL COMMUNITIES AND
WE KNOW THAT BECAUSE WE CONTINUE
. STRUGGLE TO TRY AND GET
FUNDING FOR OUR FARMWORKERS TO
BE TRAINED CALIFORNIA'S
FARMWORKERS ARE BEING COMPUTER
LEFT OUT OF WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES GEARED
AT PROVIDING ENTRY INTO THE
RESULT OF IT. FOURNIS EMISSIONS
GOALS AND ECONOMIC BENEFITS THAT
WILL COME WITH IT. SHOULD BE
ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE
ESPECIALLY THE PEOPLE WORK HARD
TO PUT FOOD ON OUR TABLES. RURAL
AND INLAND COMMUNITIES TEND TO
HAVE HIGHER UNEMPLOYMENT LOWER
EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT AND MORE
FAMILIES STRUGGLING TO PUT FOOD
ON THE TABLE WHILE AT THE SAME
TIME. BEING THE MOST IMPACTED BY
CLIMATE CHANGE. RURAL
COMMUNITIES FACE MANY CHALLENGES
TO ACCESS WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
TRAINING AND MANY OF THE ENTRIES
ARE DYING OR RAPIDLY CHANGING.
THAT IS WHY SB FIVE THIRTY FOUR
SO IMPORTANT IT WILL HELP
IDENTIFY CRITICAL INDUSTRIES
RELATED TO THE STATE'S AMBITIONS
GOALS ONE OF THE SAME TIME
PROVIDING THE TRAINING NEEDED TO
GAIN A TOP IN BOTH INDUSTRIES.
BY FOCUSING CREATING JOBS AND
PROVIDING THE TRAINING NEEDED
FOR THOSE JOBS TO RURAL
COMMUNITIES SB FIVE THIRTY FOUR
WILL HELP CALIFORNIA MEET OUR
AMBITIOUS GOALS FOCUSING ON
COMMUNITIES THAT HAVE LONG BEEN
FORGOTTEN. THERE'S ONE HUGE
IMPACT THIS OCCURRING IN THE ACT
INDUSTRY. V. AUTOMATION. AND IT
FEELS IT'S ALSO DISPLACING
FARMWORKERS BIT NEED TRAINING
NOT ONLY BECAUSE ARE BEING
DISPLACED BUT ALSO TO WORK IN
THE INDUSTRY THAT THEY'RE
WORKING BECAUSE IT'S BECOMING
HAVING AUTOMATED. FOR THIS
REASON MORE LOCAL BUT AT THE
LATEST IN SUPPORT OF THIS BILL

WELL WE'RE NOW GONNA MOVE TO-
FILE ITEM FOR SB SEVEN OH THREE.
CENTER NEW LOW- THANK YOU FOR
YOUR PATIENCE AND WELCOME TO THE
PODIUM.
RECEDE WHEN READY. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH MR CHAIRMAN AND
MEMBERS I APPRECIATE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT SENATE
BILL SEVEN OH THREE WHICH SEEKS
TO PROVIDE FLEXIBILITY FOR
EMPLOYEES IN THE WORK FORCE.
WHEN IN TWENTY TWENTY OUR LIVES
WERE UP ENDED BY THE COVERT
NINETEEN PANDEMIC. I SUSPECT
EVERYBODY REMEMBERS THAT. BOTH
WORKERS AND EMPLOYERS HAD TO
ADAPT THEIR LIFESTYLES. AND THE
WAY THAT WE WORK. AS THE WORLD
IN THE ECONOMY RETURNS TO A
SENSE OF NORMALCY WE'VE RECEIVED
INPUT THAT EMPLOYEES ARE WANTING
MORE WORK FLEXIBLE WORK SCHEDULE
FLEXIBILITY. AND SB SEVEN OH
THREE DOES JUST THAT. THE BILL
WILL PROVIDE. HOURLY WAGE
EARNERS WITH THE FLEXIBILITY OF
WORKING A FORK TEN CHEF THAT IS
WORKING FOUR TEN HOUR DAYS
INSTEAD OF FIVE EIGHT HOUR DAYS
WITH THE- EXTRA TWO HOURS IN THE
FOUR DAY CYCLE NOT BEING PAID
OVERTIME. THE S. SB SEVEN OH
THREE ALLOWS CHOICE THE CHOICE
OF WORKING FOR TENS COULD GIVE
WORKERS A DESIRED THREE DAY
WEEKEND EVERY WEEKEND. AN
ADDITIONAL DAY TO TAKE CARE OF A
LOVED ONE MORE TIME TO SPEND
WITH THEIR KIDS OR ALLOW PARENTS
THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOLUNTEER IN
THEIR CLASSROOM. WELL CURRENT
LAW ALLOWS AN ALTERNATIVE
WORKWEEK SCHEDULE IT HAS TO BE
INITIATED BY THE EMPLOYER AND
THE HAS TO BE APPROVED BY AN
ENTIRE WORK UNIT SB SEVEN OH
THREE IS AN IMPROVEMENT OVER
EXISTING LAW BECAUSE IT FOCUSES
ON THE WORKERS. SB SEVEN OH
THREE ALLOWS AN EMPLOYEE TO
INITIATE THE REQUEST FOR A TEN
FOR TEN WORK WEEK AND IT DOES
NOT REQUIRE THE EMPLOYEE TO ASK
THEIR PEERS. TO HAVE AN ELECTION
PROCESS JUST SO THE EMPLOYER CAN
ACCOMPLISH ACCOMMODATE AN
EMPLOYEE'S REQUEST FOR THE FORT
TEN SCHEDULE. CALIFORNIA IS
PRESENTLY THE ONLY STATE IN THE
UNION THAT REQUIRES DAILY
OVERTIME- BY AFTER EIGHT HOURS
BUT PRESENT AND PRESENTLY
PROVIDES NO MECHANISM FOR
INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEES TO REQUEST
OR PRIVATE EMPLOYEES TO PROVIDE
SUCH FLEXIBILITY. IN SUPPORT OF
SB SEVEN OH THREE I'D LIKE TO
INTRODUCE PAM GARCIA AN HOURLY
EMPLOYEE WHO WOULD LIKE TO
SCHEDULE AN IS BUSINESS
DEVELOPMENT MANAGER FOR THE
RANCHO CORDOVA AREA OF COMMERCE
AND JENNIFER GREEN MANAGING
PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT OF GREEN
GLOBAL RESOURCES AND LOS ALTOS.

HELLO HI MY NAME IS PAM GARCIA
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALLOWING
ME TO COME SPEAK WITH YOU GUYS
TODAY. LIKE M. CENTER NEAR LO
SAID I AM AN HOUR EARLIER LORI
FOR THE RANCH COULD OVER CHAMBER
OF COMMENTS LOVE THE JOB AND
SOMETIMES IT ALLOWS ME TO WORK
OVERTIME AND ALSO HAVE TO WORK

WAS REALLY NICE TO BE ABLE TO
WORK FROM HOME AND JUST BE HAVE
THAT FLEXIBILITY LOVE TO HAVE IT
AGAIN I HAVE A NEW PUPPY FOR
THOSE OF YOU HAVE EVER HAD A NEW
DOG THERE'S LOTS OF TRAINING
THAT HAS TO GO ON WITH THAT DOG.
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SAVE MY
COUCH MY DOG EATING THAT SO
ALLOW ME TO HAVE THAT EXTRA DAY
THE EXTRA HOURS TO BE ABLE TO
SPEND HOME WITH THAT DOG TO MAKE
SURE EVERYTHING'S OKAY. ALSO
WILL ALLOW ME TO WORK WITH MY
MEMBERS OF THE CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE WHEN THEY HAVE TO WORK
ON THE WEEKENDS OR WHEN THEY'RE
NOT AS BUSY TO HAVE THIS
FLEXIBLE HOURS AND BE ABLE TO
WORK IN THE EVENING WHEN IT'S
EASIER FOR ME TO COMMUNICATE
WITH THEM. I LOVE THIS- AT THE
ABILITY OF THE HAVING THE
FLEXIBLE TIME JUST BECAUSE ONE
IF I WANTED TO HAVE THE THREE
DAY WEEKEND I CAN BE ABLE TO DO
SO I AM BUT ALSO BE ABLE TO WORK
WITH MY- SUPERVISOR. AND BE ABLE
TO SCHEDULE SOMETHING THAT WE
CAN MAKE SURE THAT I'M NOT DOING
A LOT OF OVERTIME. SO THAT'S
REASON WHY I AM SUPPORT OF. THE
S. B. SEVEN OH THREE. THANK YOU.
THANK FOR YOUR TESTIMONY. AND WE
HAVE. THE MS GREEN. PLEASE COME
ON UP. WELCOME. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. IT'S A PLEASURE AND HONOR
TO. TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
SPEAK TO YOU TODAY. OF VICE
CHAIR WILK. AND CHAIRMAN OF
COURSE ISN'T. I I AM JENNIFER
GREENE- MANAGING PRINCIPAL BRING
GLOBAL RESOURCES I'M BASED IN
LOS ALTOS AND- NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA SACRAMENTO HERE AS
WELL. AS A THE VOICE OF ALL
THINGS WORK. SHERMAN WHICH IS
SOCIETY. OF FOUR HR MANAGEMENT.
IS THE FOREMOST EXPERT AND
THOUGHT LEADER. ON ISSUES
IMPACTING TODAY'S EVOLVING
WORKPLACES. I SPEAK ON BEHALF OF
OVER THIRTY THOUSAND SURE IN
CALIFORNIA MEMBERS. EMPLOYEES
VALUE FLEXIBILITY IN A RECENT
TREND SURVEY WORKFORCE TRENDS
SURVEY. SHERMAN FOUND THAT
FLEXIBILITY WAS THE THIRD. MOST
ENGAGING OF FACTOR IN THE
WORKPLACE APPALLED BY EMPLOYEES.
AND AND THIS SB SEVEN OH THREE
THIS BILL WILL PROVIDE MUCH
NEEDED FLEXIBILITY TO CAL TO
WHAT IS REALLY AN OUT OF DATE-
AND INFLEXIBLE WAGE AND HOUR
LAW- REQUIRING EMPLOYEES TO BE
PAID OVERTIME- OVER EIGHT HOURS
IN ONE DAY. SO THIS BILL WILL
HELP MANY WORKING CALIFORNIANS
BY OFFERING PRIVATE EMPLOYEES
GREATER CHAIR CHOICE OVER THEIR
WORK SCHEDULES. IMPORTANTLY IT
WILL PRESERVE THE GENERAL RULE
OF DALY OVER TIME EVEN FOR THOSE
WHO ELECT. TO HAVE THIS TYPE OF
THE SCHEDULE- OF. OVER TEN HOURS
OF COURSE EVEN AND THEN FOR
THOSE WHO DON'T ELECT OF COURSE
TO HAVE THIS INDIVIDUALIZED
SCHEDULE- AS A- MANAGEMENT OF
ANNA. MEMBER OF CORPORATE
AMERICA I HAVE WORKED IN
CORPORATE AND- I WORK PLACE
MYSELF AND I WORK WITH TEAMS AT
NON EXEMPT EMPLOYEES- THIS IS A
NEED THAT THEY WILL. WHAT WOULD
ACTUALLY MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN STAYING WITH THE
EMPLOYER OR MOVING TO ANOTHER
EMPLOYER IT IS EVEN MORE
IMPORTANT IN A PAY INCREASE. AND
SO I THINK THAT- HR
PROFESSIONALS WHO KNOW FIRST
HAND HOW IMPORTANT THIS IS WHO
ARE INVOLVED IN DESIGNING LIKE
MYSELF AND IMPLEMENTING
WORKPLACE POLICIES. OF THE WORK
FOR THEIR EMPLOYEES- WE CAN
ATTEST TO THE FACT THIS FLEXIBLE
WORKING GAUGE MINT WOULD BE A
COMPELLING ENGAGEMENT RETENTION
AND ATTRACTION FACTOR IN THE
WORKPLACE AND UP. SO TO THAT
SHERMAN AND THE CALIFORNIA'S
SHERMAN STATE COUNCIL STAND
READY TO PROVIDE ANY DATA OR
INSIGHTS YOU NEED. AS YOU
CONSIDER THIS IMPORTANT
LEGISLATION THANK YOU FOR YOUR
TIME AND I WELCOME ANY
OPPORTUNITY TO ANSWERING
QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE.
THANK YOU BROUGH TESTAMENT THANK
YOU. WAS THERE ANYONE ELSE IN
THE ROOM WHO WISHES TO COME
FORWARD EXPRESS THE SUPPORT
POSITION THIS TIME. C. NINE IS
THERE AN OPPOSITION WITNESS.
PREPARED YOU MAY PERCENT. MISTER
CHAIR MEMBER SARAH LOCKS
CALIFORNIA THEY WERE FEDERATION
IN RESPECTFUL OPPOSITION- WE
FEEL LIKE THIS BILL A ROAD STAFF
FUNDAMENTAL WORKERS RIGHT TO AN
EIGHT HOUR DAY- A RIGHT THAT WAS
ESTABLISHED IN EIGHTEEN SIXTY
EIGHT IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
AND THAT WE HAVE FOUGHT FOR OVER
THE YEARS- WE ALSO FEEL LIKE.
THERE IS NO CONFLICT BETWEEN THE
SANCTITY OF THE EIGHT HOUR DAY
AND FLEXIBILITY FOR WORKERS THE
CURRENT LAW STRIKES THAT
BALANCE- EMPLOYERS CAN SCHEDULE
ALTERNATIVE WORK WEEK ELECTIONS
AND THEY CONTROL EVERY ASPECT OF
IT THEY DECIDE WHO THE WORK UNIT
IS THEY DECIDE THE NUMBER SHIFTS
OFFERED- EVERY ASPECT. OF WHAT
IS INVOLVED IN AN ALTERNATIVE
WORKWEEK COLLECTION TO GO TO
WHAT THAT THE SENATOR IS
PROPOSING IN ADDITION THERE ARE
ALSO MAKE UP SHIPS THAT CAN BE
DONE IN OTHER ASPECTS OF
FLEXIBILITY- AND SO THERE IS
THAT FLEXIBILITY THAT IS BUILT
AND IN ADDITION THE LABOR CODE.
VERY MUCH DIS FAVORS INDIVIDUAL
WAIVERS OF RIGHTS BECAUSE OF THE
POWER IMBALANCE IN THE WORKPLACE
WORKERS CAN BE EASILY
INTIMIDATED COERCED INFLUENCED
TO DO THAT INDIVIDUAL WAIVER OF
THEIR RIGHTS AND THAT'S WHY THE
LABOR CODE. DOES NOT- PREFERENCE
THAT IN THE CODE WHICH THIS BILL
WOULD DO- I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT
IF THERE IS AN INTEREST IN
EMPLOYERS- AND SHERMAN
PROMOTING- AT. ALL STATE
EXCEPTIONS TO THE EIGHT HOUR DAY
THAT COULD BE SOMETHING THAT
THEY COULD GO OUT AND EDUCATE
EMPLOYERS ON ABOUT HOW TO USE
EXISTING LAW ON THE ALTERNATIVE
WORK WEEK ELECTION. SO FOR THOSE
REASONS WE OPPOSE. THANK YOU FOR
YOUR TESTIMONY OF ANY ANYONE
ELSE WISHING TO EXPRESS
OPPOSITION AT THIS TIME. ACERTAR

VERY MUCH- BUT I'M NOT GONNA BE
ABLE TO BE AN AUTO QUOTE TODAY-
SIR- ALSO ALL THIS AND- I DO DO
REALLY UNDER. WHERE YOU'RE
COMING FOR IN TERMS OF SOME OF
THE REASONS AND SOME OF THE
TESTIMONY. THE PROBLEM IS OUT IN
THE IN THE REAL WORLD WHERE.
THERE'S INDUSTRIES ENTIRE
INDUSTRIES THAT REALLY
UNFORTUNATELY THERE MODEL RELIES
ON HOW MUCH THEY EXPLOIT WORKERS
HOW LITTLE THEY PAY HOW MUCH
WEIGHT STEP THERE IS OUT THERE
SO. I THINK THIS JUST GIVES FOR
THOSE UNSCRUPULOUS EMPLOYERS
ANOTHER TOOL TO PAY LESS THAN
WHAT THEY SHOULD BE PAYING- BY
NOT PAYING THE OVERTIME OVER THE
DAY SO. I WELL I APPRECIATE THE
EFFORT- I THINK THE REAL WORLD
OUT THERE IS FAR MORE
TREACHEROUS. SO I IT WAS SUPPORT
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT JUMPS
SENATORS HAVE OPERA TO CLOSE AT
THIS TIME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH I
COULD- BUT YOU CENTER WALKS
COMMENTS AS MY CLOTHES BUT I AM
COMPELLED TO SAY A LITTLE BIT
MORE- FIRST OF ALL TODAY YOU'VE
HEARD FROM AN EMPLOYEE. WHO
WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THIS OPTION
AND AN HR PROFESSIONAL WHO HAS
HAD TO EXPLAIN THE COMPLEXITY
AND RISK. OF THE CURRENT
OVERTIME LAWS THAT EMPLOYEES AND
EMPLOYERS- MY GO THROUGH TO
IMPLEMENTED UNDER THE CURRENT
LAW- ALSO YOU'VE HEARD FROM SOME
GROUPS. NUMEROUS GROUPS
REPRESENTING EMPLOYERS WHO WOULD
BE WILLING TO PROVIDE THIS
BENEFIT. OUT WHAT YOU HAVE NOT
HEARD FROM IS ANY EMPLOYEES. WHO
OPPOSE THIS. BECAUSE BY AND
LARGE IT'S A PRETTY POPULAR
OPTION. THE OPPOSITION HAS
DESCRIBED THE BILL AS A ROADING
THE RIGHT TO AN EIGHT HOUR
WORKDAY YET FOR TENS. IS ONE OF
THE NUMEROUS ALTERNATIVE WORK
SCHEDULES. THAT STATE AGENCIES
OFFER. SO AND SOME UNION SHOPS.
AS PART OF THEIR COLLECTIVE
BARGAINING AGREEMENT. THIS COULD
BE IMPLEMENTED IN A MORE SIMPLE
FASHION IN NONUNION-
ORGANIZATIONS. NOW SENATOR
DORADO TO YOUR POINT. THERE IS
NOTHING IN THIS BILL THAT WOULD
CHANGE WAY SHIPS. THE FORTY
HOURS WOULD BE PAID IN FOUR
DAYS. AS IT WOULD OTHERWISE BE
PAID IN FIVE DAYS NOTHING
CHANGES THE WAGE THE PRESUMPTION
. THAT ALL BUSINESSES. ARE OUT
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEIR
EMPLOYEES I HAVE TO SAY AS A
BUSINESS PERSON. IS KIND OF A
FENCE AND- RELATIVE TO THE POWER
BALANCE IN THE WORKPLACE. THAT
THE OPPOSITION STATED I CAN TELL
YOU. FROM PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE.
HAVING RUN CAR DEALERSHIPS FOR
TWENTY FIVE YEARS BEFORE I
ENTERED THIS PROFESSION THERE IS
NO FUTURE FOR AN EMPLOYER TO
BLATANTLY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
THEIR EMPLOYEES. YOU WILL LOSE
THEM YOU'LL GET A BAD REPUTATION
AND YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO HIRE
QUALITY EMPLOYEES NOW ARE THERE
SOME BAD ACTORS IN EVERY WALK OF
LIFE YES THERE IS. BUT THAT'S
THE EXCEPTION. WE OUGHT NOT TO
BE LEGISLATING TO THE EXCEPTION
WE OUGHT TO BE LEGISLATING TO
THE OPPORTUNITIES IN THE MARKET
PLACE. AND THE OPPOSITION ALSO
SAID THAT THE EMPLOYER ALREADY
HAS THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE THE
FLEXIBILITY AND ALSO WENT ON TO
SAY THEY'VE GOT ALL CONTROL OVER
IT WELL THIS BILL. DOESN'T GIVE
THE EMPLOYER CONTROL. THIS
OFFERS THE EMPLOYEE A CHOICE THE
EMPLOYEE IN ORDER FOR THIS TO
WORK THE EMPLOYEE HAS TO REQUEST
IT. AND THEN THE EMPLOYER CAN
GRANT. IT IS A PRETTY SIMPLE
PROPOSAL. DOES NOT FLY IN THE
FACE COMPLETELY OF. WAGE AN HOUR
PRACTICES IT JUST CHANGES THEM
SO EMPLOYEES HAVE A CHOICE. AND
BUSINESSES CAN PROVIDED I ASK
FOR YOUR VOTE FOR YOUR AYE VOTE
. I THANK YOU SENATOR- WE WILL.
