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.

Briefly Noted: AB 392 Signed Into Law
Requires employers to give spouse of a returning soldier up to 10 days of unpaid leave while the spouse is on a military leave. The language says “spouse” not “spouse or domestic partner.” I’ll be curious to see if anything happens there.
Update those handbooks.
