Cal. Pub. Util. Code § 125540 — Rights of Employees of Existing Facilities is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
Whenever the district acquires existing facilities from a publicly or privately owned utility, either in proceedings by eminent domain or otherwise, to the extent necessary for operation of facilities, all of the employees of the utility whose duties pertain to the facilities acquired who have been employed by the utility for at least 75 days shall be appointed to comparable positions by the board without examination. These employees shall be given sick leave, seniority, and vacation credits in accordance with the records of the acquired public utility. No employee of any acquired public utility shall suffer any worsening of wages, seniority, pension, vacation, or other benefits by reason of the acquisition.
Whenever the district acquires existing facilities from a publicly or privately owned utility, either in proceedings in eminent domain or otherwise, the district shall assume and observe all existing labor contracts.
The provisions of this section shall apply only to those officers or supervisory employees of the acquired utility as shall be designated by the district.
