In June, @GavinNewsom called state workers back to their desks. CA officials say the return to office has been a success, but labor groups say enforcement of the mandate is inconsistent. How many state workers actually returned? sacbee.com/news/politics-…

State attorneys expecting a raise in July didn't see any more $ on their paycheck last month due to issues with the decades-old payroll system. “It’s very alarming that this continues to happen in this day and age" sacbee.com/news/politics-…

After Gov. Newsom ordered the state to clear homeless encampments, one question remained: Where are people who live in those spaces supposed to go? For the past 5 years, CA has been trying to convert state buildings into homes for low-income residents. sacbee.com/news/politics-…

Some California state workers could lose telework privileges entirely if they don't comply with two-day mandates. At least one department has threatened some employees with five-day in-office work, according to an unreleased draft memo. Read more: sacbee.com/news/politics-…


Several #California agencies praised remote work last year in internal surveys. Still, some departments are calling workers to the office in person twice a week, despite suggesting in the survey that full #telework would stay. Read what your dept said: sacbee.com/news/politics-…


State employees with disabilities make up only about 7% of California's government workforce. But for that small group of people, returning to the office presents more challenges and risks than for their non-disabled counterparts. sacbee.com/news/politics-…


Since The Bee published its investigation into Cal-OSHA's hiring practices, legislators and worker advocates have come forward demanding action, especially from CA Gov. Gavin Newsom. But so far, the governor's office has been silent. sacbee.com/news/politics-…


In case you missed it, California's most reliable source of state worker telework data could soon disappear. Gov. Gavin Newsom's budget removes funding for the Telework Compliance Office, whose database gives insight into departments' telework policies sacbee.com/news/politics-…

Chris Ailman, the longtime chief investment officer at California's teachers' pension fund, will retire in June. He grew the fund from $100 bil to nearly $318 bil in his 23 years with CalSTRS. “It has been an honor, the privilege of my career," he said. sacbee.com/news/politics-…
