Location. How many franchises do you count i or two locations what be able. That was a concern i left that out the employee threshold. The legislation captures that 5 percent. The legislation does with the 20 employee threshold excluding the 7eleven by when businesses are going to be left out if wereth for the Small Businesses that dont have the employees. Well, there goes any public speaking time. You have two minutes. Okay. Thank you i want to raise your attention to the data about the workforce in 2006 before the recession hit the number of workers in california has troiptd this is not a california issue but a National Issue in San Francisco almost a quarter of our employees are 25 percent and its at an at risk city where scheduling is per valve across the cat and 2 3rds of food service and half of the restaurant get their schedules less than a week and half and they have fluctuation and working parents are hit the head it theyll e theyll not know how much theyll work and president chiu weve heard from many businesses in San Francisco big and small that shows you the scheduling practices do exist those employees have one or two locations in the city and show us thats possible to thrive and support of the workers and the families formula Retail Businesses if particular are the best positions to adapt the standards weve laid out in the bills the majority p have over 5 hundred positions and less than 5 percent have less than 20 locations so employers that suffer need the flexibility but for a long time the workers have shoulder accident responsibility so i urge you to consider the workers bill of rights and the Economic Security of our workers in the city. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hi good evening. Im samantha were a bio racial organizations located in the tenderloin and we deal with immigrant workers this immigrant workers bill of rights effect the people a lot of our members are struggling paycheck to paycheck that will help them out a lot of them are working two apartment jobs and going to school and their hours at the part time jobs fluctuate so some days working less hours and other weeks it fluctuates so it makes it difficult for them to budget and figure out how much money so it effects rent and food and transportation those are all things if we had the opportunity to get a fulltime job it will make their income a lot more stable than juggling two part time jobs and another thing is the scheduling for the bill of rights a lot of our members are parent or raising children and this will help them with childcare and the members that are going to school it will help them in terms of studying and being able to figure out what midterms and finals coming up how to figure out their timing when they can study and go to work so that two weeks notice will help them out a lot of the folks get their schedule on sunday to for a lot of them it is hard to come to the meetings i dont know if im going to work i wont know until sunday and another thing the on call scheduling people have to set aside one day per week thats considered on call so it goes into effecting their income some days they get called in and that will effect their pay it is hard during the one call day to figure out if they can go out with friends and dinner or hang out with their parents it effects their day to day and week to week so i urge you to support of the workers bill of rights it will help them and thank you for your time. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good evening, commissioners my name is a gordon the director of jobs of justice im here to speak in support of the two ordinances which combined the workers bill of rights and campaigned supervisor mar and supervisor chiu for theyre fair policies it is a combrourg policy in San Francisco that will become the first place in the city to protective late fair schedules for workers who very much need these and jobs of justice is a workers right organization so for all the reasons all the speakers should spoken weve been involved in helping to create and advocate for the whole range of difficult progressive policies here in San Francisco from minimum wage to the sick pay leaf and other issues with the Small Business community and we certainly understand the concerns of Small Business when alleged you know mandates are applied to them equally as their applied to the large corporate employers so those jobs for justice and other groups weve been working with took a different approach we wanted to trailer and targeted are tattered those to the big corporations and their corporate restaurant particularly the fast food restaurants that are causing the problems nationally those low road employers not only the allow wages harm the workers that work for them and help to generate their profits but harmful to the Small Businesses in San Francisco and nationally because its hard for small and independent businesses to compete begin the low road practices so weve tried to work you know with the Business Community in particular, the Small Business like sf loma north america ma and supervisor david chius task force samantha mentions a number of Business Leaders were part of those discussions so you know we really wanted to try to create theyre scheduling policies that apply to the big corporate employers so weve not applied those to the Small Businesses so you know, i think finally as hud mentioned found we found in our conversations particularly with the small independent businesses their incorporating those fair scheduling practices into their business schedules for the workers as an important resource for their biz thats a staircase craft to mcdonalds and others. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hi commissioners, thank you for your times im samantha im here representing the golden gate im a formula retail employee in the city im here to august both piece of legislation to protect formula retail employee rights are premature and require more review first one ordinance instead of two is the best way to push this legislation forward and the competing ordinances are confusing second i urge the commission to seek more time to fully explorer how they can best protect the formula retail employees we find issue with the practicality of the recordkeeping aspect of the ordinance as an apartment formula retail employee i value the flexibility i get in my job it allows me to get the extra day of studying or move things around our concern when it comes to recordkeeping how do you do that when the employees want to shift schedules how is the employers got an record before the employee gets in trouble we want to protect the employer when did employee seeks the possibility so i urge more time to work out those issues and lastly as dee dee mentioned it didnt makes sense pushing an ordinance restricting formula retail before its defined as she said more businesses in the city are going to fall into the umbrella of formula retail theyre not aware of it they dont know what formula retail is so adding the restrictions before we define it letting them know about the formula retail is unwise in my opinion with that, we urge the commission to urge budget and finance to take more time to look at the legislation and hopefully combine them to get a better consensus and version of this ordinance thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello im is jena cassidy i work in the coalition were a studying coalition im a single parent i work with a lot of caregivers and far from being premature its late people have weve talked to workers that dont know when theyre going to tuck their kids in their schedules changes on a dime we helped to work with the supervisor on the task force with some of the businesses are here in this room from the Business Associations like the chamber and the Restaurant Association one of the components of the bill theres a study component were really interested in how its working and you know we want to make sure its implemented thats an important piece we want to work on policies that work for workers and the other thing its protective for workers to trade shifts and have the flexibility thats not something that the legislation do so a away with it will help the members of the coalition, you know who care about having the flexibility and the predictability they need to care for their families thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hi steven with the Council Meeting merchants i worked on one of the tvngz with president chiu one thing about the legislation yes, it only effects formula retail with 20 or more employees but all of us with smaller numbers of employees we have to be competitive were going to end up giving our employees like the bigger ones do to be competitive is that a big deal not a big deal my business has been doing t this for years i want to object the larger employer city and county of San Francisco when necessary bye stuff theyre to get the lowest bid this legislation didnt effect anybody they buy from if you have great legislation like the increase in minimum wage or anything else theyre putting on San Francisco businesses and i think the city and county of San Francisco should require it in their perspire orders for everything they buy they do it for social issues when there was problems with south africa and we dont buy from cities from the hardwood, etc. But when it comes to paying a nick you will e he will out from San Francisco businesses they wont be buy if from us you guys should consider this legislation. Thank you very much. Any more speakers . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed commissioners do we have any comments . Commissioner riley i agree with one of the speakers we should recommend to combine those two protections into one. Okay commissioner ortizcartagena. Thank you, everybody for coming and speaking and the spirit and the intentions im obviously supportive and understand the benefits to the workforce i have questions on the first ordinance as the commissioner riley had also i too would rather wait until the formula retail is defined and maybe get more input from Small Businesses your commission to protect Small Businesses and the intent and spirit of the ordinance i know it will help our community i want to share theres no unintended bad things to happen to Small Businesses as a result of this. Commissioner riley and yeah. I also think we should i want to see more flexibility for both the employer and employee i if two employees want to shift change we cant do it here without pejt listing the employer. Any more comments i personally want to see both of these combined into one ordinance i do understand the spirit and lord know i worked in small franchises when i went to college and sometimes, it was crazy so i get that, however, i would like to holdoff on this legislation until we define what formula retail is and let that workout first and i would like to see those two pieces of legislation come together and i do know that there was outreach on a xhooufd and i understand there was not much outreach on the supervisor mar legislation so i want to see more outreach my recommendations to this commission would be to have those two pieces of legislation combined into one and wait until after the board of supervisors meets and defines what actually is formula retail so im going to motion that if anybody wants to second it. Id like to. Go ahead. Mr. President , say that the workers bill of rights is an important piece of legislation, however, it needs to be tweaked and in the best interest of the legislation it is a little bit premature that allows the Business Community the chamber of commerce a cough of weeks to work out and to bring in their suggestions so we have a better and solid legislation that would be sponsored by the Small Business contingent so mr. President , i urge you to make a motion. Commissioner dwight. Yeah. Id like to echo that i think when were making laws and provision is important especially important as an issue as important as this and perhaps a long overdue issue but dealt with with precision a number of unknowns especially being the cart before the horse and creating a legislation that depends on another piece of legislation to to be determined so again, i think all of us agree that is important that it is a good objectives and prntdz are good but we need to see die temporary restraining orders process w that we do our duty. Commissioners, i just want to also point out that staff is provided a list of a few items where those two ordinances dont line up with the Family Friendly ordinance and want to know if you want to make a recommendation to also include that. 53 yes absolutely ill make a recommendation to combine those and to wait until after what weve fined as formula retail is formula retail and make sure it goes along the guidelines with the Family Friendly ordinance because we were all involved. And to correct the unnonsense inconsistence is. Did he have a second. I second can i read that. Commissioners you are motioning to hopefully, i have this correct to to the board of supervisors requested them to continue working with the business communities for another couple of weeks before passing this out of the budget and finance committee on wednesday that a recommendation is to combine the ordinance wanted to make sure that the ordinance does not pass before the formula retail legislation passes to insure that the ordinance allows for the flexibility for both the employer and the employee that the inconsistent between the two ordinances line up were noted were noted line up with the Family Friendly ordinance and the fair chance ordinance. Correct. And if there are anything else. Thats it. All right. So this is our motion and thats been monoxide by commissioner president adams and seconded by commissioner toursarkissian roll call commissioner president adams commissioner dooley commissioner dwight commissioner ortizcartagena p commissioner riley commissioner toursarkissian. That motion passes 5 to zero. Great, thank you thank you all for coming out this evening. Next item, please.
