Santa Maria Valley Chamber Opposes SB 1299 (CORTESE)

SB 1299 (CORTESE) FARMWORKERS: BENEFITS
OPPOSE – AS AMENDED MARCH 21, 2024


The California Chamber of Commerce and the organizations listed respectfully OPPOSE SB 1299
(Cortese).
We are unaware of data to support the presumption proposed by SB 1299. Further, the
presumption would apply even in situations where any link between the employer’s conduct and a heat related illness or injury is tangential, at best, and appears to mandate that WCAB evaluate employer
compliance with regulations created by a different state agency.
