California Just Passed PAGA Reform. Here Is the Impact | Brian Mass | William Gould | Tom Manzo
Manage episode 427409262 series 3364485
California’s largest business and labor groups have recently come together to strike a deal on one of the most controversial laws in California: the Private Attorney General Act, also known as PAGA.
“Attorneys fighting with companies, companies fighting back. A lot of people realized how much money they could make from it. And it became this billion-dollar industry.”
When the law was passed in 2004, it was meant to deter employers from violating serious labor laws: “Wage theft, minimum wage violations, government is not doing very much about this, you can file a claim with a government and it can sit there for three years or more without it being attended to.”
In today’s episode, we'll look into how the PAGA law works, its growing controversy, and the recent agreement between the California Legislature, business, and labor groups to reform it. We also discuss what this new reform means for California workers and employers.
