GCVCC Opposes SB 213

February 24, 2021

News from the GCVCC Business Legislative Advocacy Committee

The following is a sign on letter drafted by CalChamber, submitted in duplicate to our local elected leader(s).

Sacramento, CA: The Greater Coachella Valley Chamber of Commerce respectfully OPPOSES SB 213 (Cortese), which will impose an astronomical financial burden on employers in the healthcare industry that is presently grappling with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and create a troubling precedent for the workers’ compensation system in general by creating a legal presumption that blood-borne infectious disease, tuberculosis, meningitis, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), cancer, musculoskeletal injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, or respiratory disease are presumptively workplace injuries for all hospital employees that provide direct care.
