Reform PAGA To Protect Small Businesses George Runner July 20, 2021
By George Runner
Members of California’s small business community are just now getting back on their feet following the devastation caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
To achieve a full economic recovery, lawmakers in Sacramento must come together to find ways to ease the regulatory burden that business owners are up against. A great place to start would be to reform the Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) which has wreaked havoc on California small businesses and consequently, hurt consumers and employees.
The original intent of PAGA was to give aggrieved employees the ability to file claims against their employers for legitimate labor and wage violations and recover appropriate compensation. When it was first enacted in 2003, PAGA seemed like a commonsense way to address a real issue. Everyone can agree that workers who can prove they were harmed in the workplace should be entitled to compensation.
