Existing law establishes the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, headed by the Labor Commissioner, within the Department of Industrial Relations, for the purpose of enforcing labor laws. Existing law exempts an employee from certain provisions governing wages, hours, and other protections if the employee meets certain requirements, including being employed to provide instruction for a course or laboratory at an independent institution of higher education, as defined.
This bill would revise the definition of an independent institution of higher education for purposes of the above-described exemption by including those institutions whose formation as a nonprofit corporation occurred out of this state and excluding those institutions whose formation occurred on or after January 1, 2023. The bill would declare that these provisions are declaratory of existing law.
