The California Civil Rights Initiative - The Effect of Proposition 209 on California Businesses On Tuesday. November 5. 1996, California voters put an end to three decades of affirmative action programs in state and local government and public education admissions. By a margin of almost 54% to 46%, voters approved Proposition 209, the "California Civil Rights Initiative" (CCRl), widely perceived as an initiative designed to end affirmative action and minority set aside programs. It is important that California employers understand how this initiative does and does not affect their businesses. Here are the basics: . While the CCRl primarily affects affirmative action and set aside programs in state and local government and public education, it may also impact private businesses which provide goods or services to California public agencies. f\'-'~ . .. "./," Special Edition. N . Even for state and local and public educational institutions. the CCRl does not require any change to court ordered "l programs which call for affirmative action or minority set aside efforts as a remedy for correcting past discrimination. . Importantly, Proposition 209 does not apply to.programs that are federally funded or .federally mcmdated and require adherence to federal affirmative action guidelines. Lers explore how Proposition 209 impacts private sector businesses. Private sector businesses that are contractors with. or subcontractors to, the United States Government. or any federal agency, or federally funded program, may be under the affirmative action guidelines established by Executive Order 11246. E.O. 11246 is the federal Executive Order which calls for federal contractors and subcontractors of a certain size to implement written affirmative action programs. If a California business meets these federal contractor guidelines. it must have an affirmative action plan and program. The CCRl has no impact whatsoever on E.O. 11246 compliance. since this is a federal law which cannot be changed by California voters. Note that some California public institutions may themselves be federal government contractors. For example. many of our public universities receive federal funding lor research grants and are thus covered under the federal affirmative action guidelines. Proposition 209 would not affect the federal affirmative action obligations of these entities. For those businesses that are not federal government contractors or subcontractors, but are state or local government contractors or subcontractors, adoption of Proposition 209 may have an impact on certain contract requirements, especially if yours is a minority-owned or woman-owned business. Often, local municipalities have, or have had. contract set aside programs. For example. the City of San Diego had such a program. but it had already been ordered in a 1993 case to cease its goal- based contracting program which had provided some preferential treatment in the awarding of contracts to minorities and women. Other state and local agencies with this type of program are impacted by the CCRI. and will be reevaluating their programs in light of Proposition 209. Employers would be wise to move slowly in making any major changes while court challenges are ruled upon and California agencies reevaluate their contract requirements. Legal challenges to the OCR! have already been filed by the ACLU and a variety of other groups. If you have an affirmative action plan or program. or are a bidder for state project or service contracts, our advice is to consult legal counsel to review your contractor status and determine whether or not the CCRI changes your obligations, or protest rights. in any way. . Passage of Proposition 210 Increases Minimum Wage On November 5. 1996, California voters passed Proposition 210, the 'Living Wage Initiative.' Accordingly, California law now requires that as of March I, 1997. emplayers must pay employees a minimum of $5.00 an hour. By March 1. 1998, employers will be required to pay $5.75 an hour. As you know. if the federal minimum wage is different from the state minimum wage, an employer must pay whichever wage ( is higher. Thus, employers must likewise conform to the increases set out in the Federal Minimum Wage Act of 1996. This new law increased the federal minimum wage from $4.25 an hour to $4.75 an hour. effective October of 1996. A further increase is scheduled effective September 1. 1997. to $5.15 an hour. The following chart outlines the increases required by California employers due to the interaction of the two laws: Prior to Oct. 1996 4.25 California and Federal Oct. I, 1996 4.75 Federal Mar. I, 1997 5.00 California September I, 1997 5.15 Federal March 1,1998 5.75 California ( Employers may have taken note of some of the exceptions enumerated in the Federal Wage Act. For example. employers are permitted to pay a 'training wage' of $4.25 an hour to certain qualifying employees. However. the training wage exception under the state law dillers from federal law. applying only to minors for a short introductory work period and providing a dillerent rate than under federal law. Therefore. employers should carefully investigate the applicable training wage provisions and rates before utilizing these exceptions. This Special Edilion of Ihe Employmmt La..
