Sacramento, CA – Today, the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Western States Council applauded the California State Senate for passing SB 1032 (Reyes), the Staffing Agency Fair Employment ACT (SAFE Act). SB 1032 creates a clear, common-sense regulatory framework for temporary staffing agencies, similar to the one already in place for contractors and other high-risk industries. The following statement may be attributed to Jacques Loveall, president, UFCW Local 8-Golden State:
“We’re proud the California State Senate saw the need in our state for oversight and accountability in the temporary staffing industry and voted to support SB 1032. SB 1032 is much-needed legislation to ensure workers aren’t misclassified and harmed by some bad actors taking advantage of them. UFCW is proud to sponsor the SAFE Act and ensure the playing field is level for all temporary staffing agencies.”
