SB 1321

Employment Training Panel

Workers must be protected as we transition away from polluting industries. SB 1321 aims to train workers who have been displaced or are subject to displacement, because of a plant closure, workforce reduction and changes in technology. It promotes the hiring, training, and advancement of disadvantaged, marginalized, and underrepresented workers, including through participation in an apprenticeship program and creates standards for projects such as wages and insurance coverage.
