California babysitters have an employment 'bill of rights' THE GOV calls it. MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO GET CHILDCARE IN EMERGENCIES, requiring TWO NANNIES at all times!
Time for my legally mandated Break.
See you in ten minutes, Baby Boy! SEPT. 1, 2011 - It may soon be illegal to keep your babysitter longer than two hours without a rest break if Assemblyman Tom Ammiano's (D-SF) bill wins state approval. (Law is ON HOLD FOR THE MOMENT THO in 2015 so you google it now)
California's babysitters may soon get what Sacramento calls "a new Bill of Rights."
It may soon be illegal to keep your babysitter longer than two hours without a rest break if Assemblyman Tom Ammiano's (D-SF) bill wins state approval. Somebody SEND THIS GUY to HELL. Ammiano's bill requires copious worker's protection for domestic laborers such as babysitters, nannies or maids. THEY MUST BELONG to a UNION. You can't just hire anybody!
Employers would have to provide workers' compensation benefits, overtime pay, meal breaks, paid vacation time and rest breaks every two hours. SENATORS and CONGRESSMEN notoriously have not done this, but now EVERYMAN MUST. The bill has already passed in the Assembly and has support from the California Senate.
Under existing law, domestic workers are excluded from these provisions, which also require employers to comply with certain safety regulations as well. What is the difference between a domestic worker and a babysitter?
The difference is (ahem) negotiable. I get 200$ an hour
and will do whatever baby wants! No rest breaks necessary.
Call me domestic, a sitter, whatever you want ---
just CALL me! Ginger's Whatever at (818) 774-....Among the bill's provisions, live-in nannies must be given eight hours of "uninterrupted sleep,'"except in an emergency. The worker would also be allowed to choose the food he or she eats. As for the Friday-night babysitter: parents would be required to pay them at least minimum wage, and provide a substitute caregiver every two hours so that the babysitter can take breaks. SO YOU NEED TWO SERVANTS FULL TIME!
The Senate's analysis of the bill estimates that there are about 200,000 domestic work employees in California that would be affected by the bill.
They cited a report, which found that child care workers, garment workers, maids and housekeepers had high rates of minimum wage violations. Well, now they won't. They just won't be able to find a JOB. (NBC News)

A reader wrote the website where I found this discussed: " I see the economy taking a nose-dive as parents forgo an evening out in favor of a movie at home. The theaters, restaurant and other venues will lose revenue. Lost revenue = lost jobs, businesses closing, more unemployment and more foreclosures. How do you provide an alternate sitter for a break? Seriously, lets think about this. Some of the provisions in this bill are very short-sighted."
I used to have a terrific job! Maria, the sweetest maid, cleaned house and
took care of the baby. Now she's gone and all I have is this... this... BABY!
