Description
[25 Cal3d Page 204] The California Hotel and Motel Association and others (the association) appeal from a judgment denying the association's petition for a writ of mandate to invalidate Order 5-76 of the respondent Industrial Welfare Commission (the commission). Order 5-76 fixes wages, hours, and conditions of employment in the public housekeeping industry, which provides meals, lodging, and maintenance services to the public. The association argues that order 5-76 is invalid because the commission did not investigate and find that wages were inadequate or that the hours or working conditions were harmful to employees in the industry, as required by Labor Code section 1178.1 We reject this argument. However, the association's further contention that Order 5-76 is invalid because the commission did not include an adequate statement of basis to support the order, as required by section 1177, is sound. We outline the purposes of a statement of basis, define the standard to test a statement of basis, and apply that standard to the documents in this case. We reverse the judgment and direct issuance of a writ guiding further action by the commission.2
