SB 1121 – Agricultural Worker Overtime
Fresno Chamber Position: OPPOSE
SB 1121 would treat agricultural workers the same as regular
workers when it comes to overtime payment. Currently,
agricultural workers may work 10 hours per day and 6 days a
week, before overtime payment is required. Under this
legislation, those limits would be reduced to 8 hours per day
and 40 hours per work for regular pay. Hours worked beyond that
would be on overtime payment.
