New Workplace Protections for California Housecleaners, Nannies, & Caregivers
Activists and domestic workers in California are asking Governor Gavin Newsom to sign a bill that would extend safe work requirements to 13 million California households employing domestic help such as housekeepers and gardeners. The bill is titled SB 1257. SB 1257 would grant workplace protections to domestic workers, which are primarily workers from marginalized groups.
