AB 1421 California Assembly · 2009-2010 Regular Session

Employment: work hours.

Summary
Under existing law, 8 hours of labor constitutes a workday. Existing law provides that time spent commuting to and from the first place at which an employee's presence is required by the employer is not part of a workday when the employee commutes in a vehicle that is owned, leased, or subsidized by the employer and is used for ridesharing. This bill would provide that time spent in transit on a facility-provided conveyance from a remote employee parking location to and from the place at which an employee's presence is required by the employer shall be considered to be part of a workday if the time spent in transit one-way exceeds 12 minutes, the employee is wearing a uniform or insignia while in transit required by the employer, and the employee is employed at an amusement park, sports venue, or entertainment venue, or by a private service contractor at an airport, as these places of employment are defined by the North American Industry Classification System or its predecessor. By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
