Jerry Brown removed temporary provisions on Monday for overtime for nannies and other domestic workers, thus ensuring additional pay would continue for more than nine hours of work in a single day or 45 hours in a week. The original 2013 law signed by Brown was set to expire on Jan. 1. The new law, Senate Bill 1015 by state Sen. Connie Leyva (D-Chino), will keep those provisions in place. "This critically important legislation will allow domestic workers to continue receiving overtime now and into the future," Leyva said in a written statement. Brown's signature on the bill came at the same time as news of his decision to also sign a controversial bill expanding overtime pay rules for farmworkers.
