Move businesses to Texas. There is no requirement for Workers Comp Insurance.
When the Latino democrats outnumber and replace the old white dems who invited them, CA will look a whole lot different, kind of like Mexico, where you don’t see all these utopian laws.
Jefferson will be a low tax, small government, free enterprise State.
Republicans and Conservatives have much richer targets than Workman’s Comp.
And such bad optics.
How was the state of The Gipper sunk so low?
My cousin had a business in Truckee, California. He wanted to expand his shop. All the rules and regs in California became to onerous to him. He moved his business to Nevada. He took his essential employees with him and the rest no longer had a job.
California’s rules and regs is why they no longer have a job. Nevada did everything they could to assist him in moving his business. Nevada expedited all the permits and paper work for him. Nevadans now have those 50 jobs.
California has an economic death wish!
Hey, this could really stimulate the economy out there. Medical groups will now have no more than 8 providers. Think of the trickle down effect ... more work for the attorneys in setting up those numerous new LLCs, more work for the printers who will print the new business cards and letterhead, more work for the advertising magnates who must craft the new TV and print ads, more work for the accountants who will have more tax returns to work on, more ... more ... more ... /sarc off
In my years working foe a PEU in CA I know they are behind this. They fought for everyone getting workers comp for anything, disease or accident, totally unrelated to work, being the fault of the employer. If nothing else it was the stress caused by having a job.
The country of Switzerland has solved this problem long ago.
Employers all pay all accident insurance for employees. Not on the job accidents only: all accidents. Believe it or not, this is cheaper. There is no industry trying to milk employers. It’s a part of the cost of doing business but it hasn’t hurt anyone. There is up to two years of paid disability for accidents but even though there are many sport injuries, people don’t want to stay home longer than needed. Most injured return to work asap. Cottage industry, lawyers NOT NEEDED. Saves millions.
CALexit 2018 is the best solution
I run a small business in California. Tomorrow I get to deal with this:
California: Unisex restrooms required by new single-stall law
Forget the men’s room and the women’s room. Gender will no longer matter when using single-stall public bathrooms in California.
Gov. Jerry Brown on Thursday signed legislation that will require restrooms for single users to be designated all-gender, California’s latest move to bolster transgender rights even as much of the country moves in the opposite direction.

Reason 816 why I’m glad I don’t live in CA. My condolences to those FReepers who do.
What a rotten state. The feds need to go in and clean house. Investigate there assembly, how many are illegals ect. Time to right the ship.
My son and I were talking about this at breakfast as most of our competitors listed their employees as minor owners to beat the worker Comp and other laws. Whether the state enforces this or not remains to be seen
