DISCUSSION ITEMS
D. 1 CONSIDER Consent Items previously removed.
There were no items removed for discussion.
D. 2 PUBLIC COMMENT (3 Minutes/Speaker)
The County is currently in labor negotiations with the In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS).
Ben Delgado, deputy director for government relations, SIEU-UHW, Michelle Franklin, SEIU-
UHW, and Melody Lacy, IHSS caregiver, brought the following information and issues to the
Board's attention:
IHSS workers have earned $11.50/hr since January of 2009. The workers receive no sick leave
or vacation benefit, and are not paid overtime rates for work exceeding regular hours. One
proposal is to discontinue healthcare benefits, in the belief that most workers are eligible for
Medi-Cal. The organization asks that the Board commit to a $1.00/hr wage increase, so that
calculations can be made to find out if the assumption of Medi-Cal eligibility is an accurate one,
using solid numbers. Not all are in favor of discontinuing the health benefit. It was noted that
workers who are homeowners, there is a possibility that upon their passing, the Medi-Cal
Recovery Act could lay claim to the homeowners estate (home) to recover the cost of benefits. It
was further noted that some caregivers work too many hours to qualify for Medi-Cal and would
be significantly impacted by the loss of a workplace group plan.
Janet Marshal Wilson did not speak, but left written comments for the Board's consideration
(attached).
