Version:

Existing law, the State Civil Service Act, regulates employment with the state and vests in the Department of Human Resources (CalHR) all powers, duties, and authority necessary to operate the state civil service system. Existing law also establishes the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation within state government, with jurisdiction over the state correctional system, including persons committed to state prison.

This bill would require the CalHR, along with the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and other state agencies in consultation with the exclusive representative, as specified, to establish a pilot civil service apprenticeship program by July 1, 2026, for people with disabilities to become civil service environmental service technicians at correctional facilities under the jurisdiction of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

Existing law requires that a correctional industry safety committee be established in accordance with Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation administrative procedures at each facility maintaining a correctional industry, as defined, and requires the Division of Occupational Safety and Health to promulgate, and the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to implement, regulations concerning the duties and functions that govern the operation of each committee.This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
