Back in 1985 one of my duties as branch manager of retail banking for a large commercial bank was scheduling workers for this training then documenting compliance in personnel files. Every job or company with ‘no fraternization’ policies has them to protect stakeholders from costly lawsuits.

In a sense FSC is speaking truthfully …it isn’t about the industry or even Weinstein or ‘new’ California labor regulations. It is a sign of the times and getting what you ask for. The industry wanted recognized legitimacy now it is recognized and regulated same as any other legitimate US industry.

The regulations are not new, focused enforcement efforts are. Those efforts are a direct result of labor complaints against the industry over the past five years. FSC is doing what they are supposed to do by making agents, and producers aware of their liability risks with information to mitigate those risks.

Spinning it as somebody else’s fault is FSC job too. NFW the are going to say California labor agencies watching closely especially now after Kink and Agent rulings went against industry. HINT ….consent is key word to why performers prevailed in those losses.

The industry has been trying for several years to create uniform ‘consent’ policies. Now with regulatory scrutiny agents and producers will be forced to cut people loose the way Kink had to cut Deen loose when the Stoya-Deen opened a very public ‘me too’ can of worms.

California Labor commissioner works the same as OSHA. They administer Federal minimum standards the state can make stronger. They are dependent on complaints. Given the decades FSC has proven their interests as a ‘trade association’ conflict with performer rights is it any surprise performers are more willing to file a complaint with a labor agency?

“This printing house is one that also prints a massive amount of data for business from the US government.”

Exactly!!! FSC is just like every other industry advocacy group that would have you believe they scoured the law to make sure they included everything employers need to cover their ass vs reality. Federal Labor agencies offer free or dirt cheap basic (generic) materials to meet the minimum requirements of mandated training. Any employer is free to use them ‘as is’ or ‘customize’ with ADDITIONAL material specific to their industry or workplace with minimal costs to print their ‘brand(ed)’ materials.

Refresh my memory, Matthew: did you also share these fantasies at adt and on Sean’s forum or only here?

IMO the state should be providing them if they are legislating them but it would take about 30-45 minutes to research and make these up on a computer.

As for Harv Weinstein, he can go to hell and prison, getting fucked up the ass daily while in both places! The bubbas will love him at Sing Sing (his criminal charges are in NY state). Too bad Bill Cosby is in Pennsylvania, they would make great gay lovers if forced to “shack up” together in a prison cell. Suck a fucking dick, Harv!
