Inglewood decision: build the SoFi call around the campus
SoFi Stadium sits on the Hollywood Park campus in Inglewood, so a Los Angeles-area roster needs site-specific routing and jurisdiction review before release. Identify the correct employee lot or shuttle, credential entrance, screening buffer, zone lead, and post-event pickup location. The large bowl can expand by event configuration; count gates, concourses, premium areas, accessible routes, and egress posts from the approved map rather than a generic capacity ratio. Keep any downtown Los Angeles crew pool separate until availability, travel time, and the employing agency's quoted terms are reconfirmed. At close, each zone returns radios and open cases to its own lead before workers enter the campus-wide departure flow.

Why must a SoFi Stadium order identify Inglewood rather than Los Angeles?
The worksite jurisdiction and campus access both depend on the actual location. SoFi Stadium sits in Inglewood on the 300-acre Hollywood Park campus. It is not inside Los Angeles city limits. Put Inglewood, the approved staff lot or shuttle, screening point, and zone assignment on the call. Recheck travel and pay treatment before moving anyone from a Los Angeles venue onto the stadium roster.

How should a Los Angeles-area stadium track a call that passes eight hours?
Record the complete workday and route it to the employing agency for California overtime review. The rule requires overtime after eight hours, double time after twelve, and additional treatment on a seventh consecutive day. Stadium briefings, public admission, event coverage, egress, and equipment return can all sit on one long timeline. Extensions need a named approver and an updated release time, not a verbal assumption that everyone stays through close.

Where does the employer boundary sit on a California stadium crew?
The staffing agency remains the employer for its assigned event-support workers, while the stadium controls venue access and separately regulated operations. California's ABC test presumes employee status unless its conditions are met, and state law requires employer workers' compensation coverage. Write the approved gate, usher, or hospitality duties into the order. Do not convert those workers into security, drivers, riggers, or production hands through an informal day-of request.
