disability benefits 101: Cómo trabajar con una discapacidad en California
AB 925: Workforce Inclusion Act:
Frequent Pitfalls

Desconocimiento de sus derechos

AB 925 is relatively new legislation, and even many workers in California benefits programs are not fully aware of its impact.

Under AB 925, if you utilize California's In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program, you will be able to use some of your allowed IHSS hours in the workplace, under certain circumstances.

Though AB 925 authorizes the use of IHSS hours to provide personal assisstance services in the workplace, it explicitly does not increase the number of such hours available to any individual. The current maximum allowable number of service hours per month remains 283.
