AB 811, as introduced, Salas. Public employees: rights.
Existing law requires notice of any adverse action against any state employee for any cause for discipline based on any civil service law to be served within 3 years after the cause for discipline, upon which the notice is based, first arose. Existing law provides that an adverse action based on fraud, embezzlement, or the falsification of records is valid if notice of the adverse action is served within 3 years after the discovery of the fraud, embezzlement, or falsification.
This bill would reduce those timeframes to one year.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: no.
