As the wildfires in Southern California continue and air quality worsens, it's crucial for workers to know their rights. 📢 Protect yourself and others by staying informed. ⚠

Know Your Rights ⚠️ Senate Bill 1044 prohibits retaliation from employers in the case of an employee refusing to work due to an emergency condition (such as an evacuation order). Not all classifications of employees are covered by SB 1044*

🚨 Attention California 🚨 Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA) provides temporary benefits if your employment or self-employment has been lost or interrupted due to the L.A. wildfires. Apply here: edd.ca.gov/en/unemploymen…

”As the wildfires have raged across Los Angeles County, choking the air, closing schools and forcing tens of thousands of people to evacuate, employers and employees alike have had to manage a difficult balancing act between work and well being.” buff.ly/4g1MOEO

”The fires have destroyed the homes of thousands of people, but the blazes have also hurt many in the city's large immigrant workforce - people whose livelihoods depend on those homes that are now damaged or gone.” buff.ly/4hgb2we #InTheNews
