California Reaches Deal on June 18 to Reform PAGA, Removing Initiative from Ballot
Jun 18, 2024, 06:33 PM
California has reached a significant agreement to reform the Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA), a landmark law that has allowed workers to sue companies such as Walmart, Uber, and Google for workplace violations. The deal, announced by Governor Gavin Newsom's office on June 18, involves business and labor groups who were concerned about costly and frivolous lawsuits. This agreement will remove the PAGA reform initiative from the November ballot, averting a potentially expensive ballot fight. Multiple sources confirmed the deal. The changes aim to narrow the scope of the law, allowing workers to join one another and sue employers for labor law violations under more specific conditions. Details of the deal are expected to be released soon.
