Council introduces grocery worker retention ordinance, extending protections to some small stores
After testimony from UFCW and affected workers, Irvine introduced a grocery-worker retention ordinance expanding state protections to some stores under 15,000 sq. ft. (chains with >300 employees). The council added provisions to let the city manager pursue enforcement and to allow prevailing employees to recover reasonable attorney fees; first reading passed 5–2.
