For the last two years, UDW has been urging the state to develop a special exemptions process to ensure that overtime is a great benefit for all IHSS providers and clients. We are pleased to announce that many IHSS providers who need to work over the 66 hour weekly work limit will be able to do so if they qualify for one of the following exemptions:

• Parent and Grandparent Providers (categorical exemption)
• WPCS Providers (waiver exemption)
• Providers with multiple clients (extraordinary circumstances exemption)
