Abstract

Executive Order No. N-17-19 establishes the Future of Work Commission with the primary mission to study, understand, analyze, and make recommendations regarding the kinds of jobs Californians could have in the decades to come, the impact of technology on work, workers, employers, jobs, and society, methods of promoting better job quality, wages, and working conditions through technology, modernizing worker safety net protections, and the best way to preserve good jobs, ready the workforce for the jobs of the future through lifelong learning, and ensure shared prosperity for all. The executive order requires the commission to engage in specified activities to further this mission, including, identifying the potential jobs of the future and opportunities to shape those jobs for the improvement of life for all of California, and requires the commission to report on its progress by May 1, 2020. This bill would establish in statute the Future of Work Commission with the same primary mission and require the commission to engage in the same specified activities to further that mission. The bill would require the Governor to appoint the members of the commission, require the members to serve concurrent 4-year terms without compensation, and meet each calendar quarter. The bill would require the commission to issue a report to the Legislature detailing its progress on its activities on or before April 1, 2022, and on or before April 1 each year thereafter.
