AB 2142: School districts: community college districts: short-term employees: classified service.
What AB 2142 does, verified August 15, 2026
This bill aims to change the way short-term employees are classified in California school districts and community college districts. Currently, employees working less than 75% of the school year are not part of the classified service. The bill establishes a rebuttable presumption that these employees must be classified as part of the classified service if they work more than 75% of the year or if they are rehired after being laid off or terminated.
