Development OFFICE OF WORKPLACE EQUITY AND DIVERSITY
Funding is provided to launch the office and administer
community business development programs; facilitate
access to capital, loans, and grants; promote equitable
and inclusive workers’ rights; and develop the City’s
workforce through job training and creation.
MINIMUM WAGE OUTREACH
In 2015, Los Angeles became the largest city in
California to get on a path to a $15 minimum wage —
lifting incomes for more than 550,000 Angelenos. This
budget continues and adds staffing resources for the
Office of Wage Standards to conduct outreach as the
minimum wage continues to adjust annually and to
investigate potential violations of our City’s minimum
wage, paid sick leave, and ban-the-box laws.
