Protect Workers in the Janitorial Industry
AB 1978 (Gonzalez)

Many fly-by-night janitorial contractors gain an unfair advantage over union contractors by operating in the underground economy, cheating workers, and dodging enforcement. In addition, women in this industry are at great risk of sexual assault due to working alone and at night. This bill will create a registry of contractors to improve compliance and enforcement of wage and hour laws and will also require additional training on sexual harassment and assault.
