Existing law requires every employer, semimonthly or at the time of each payment of wages, to furnish each employee with an accurate itemized statement in writing showing specified information. Existing law provides that a knowing and intentional violation of this provision is a misdemeanor.
This bill would additionally require, on and after July 1, 2013, that the itemized statement include, if the employer is a temporary services employer, the rate of pay and the total hours worked for each assignment, with a specified exception.
Existing law requires an employer to provide each employee, at the time of hiring, with a notice that includes specified information, such as the rate and the basis, whether hourly, salary, commission, or otherwise, of the employee's wages, and to notify each employee in writing of any changes to the information set forth in the notice within 7 calendar days of the changes unless such changes are reflected on a timely wage statement or another writing, as specified.
This bill would additionally require that, if the employer is a temporary services employer, as specified, the notice include the name, the physical address of the main office, the mailing address if different from the physical address of the main office, and the telephone number of the legal entity for whom the employee will perform work, and any other information the Labor Commissioner deems material and necessary.
Because a willful violation of the bill's provisions would be a crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
This bill would incorporate changes to Section 226 of the Labor Code proposed by SB 1255 and AB 2674, to be operative only if this bill and either or both of those bills are chaptered and became effective on or before January 1, 2013, and this bill is chaptered last.
