2007 Legislative Session In A Nutshell

by Jon-Erik G. Storm on Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

Here is a short list of the meager changes made by this year’s session. The hourly programmer exemption dropped to $36 per hour from $42 $41 by SB 929. Pharmacists can use the alternative work-week provisions of Wage Order 4 instead of 7 by SB 812. Employers who are found to be illegally without workers’ compensation insurance can get their business name listed on the Internet by SB 869. There were a few tweaks to workers’ compensation, including a study of workers’ comp insurer insolvency by SB 316, AB 338 AB 1073, and AB 1269. Ab 392 allows for 10 days of unpaid leave to qualified military spouses.

The hourly programmer exemption dropped to $36 from $41 (adjusted for inflation, it is currently $49.77), not $42.

You are correct. It was $41.
