ASSEMBLY, No. 4750

      The Assembly Labor Committee reports favorably Assembly Bill No. 4750.

      This bill expands certain employer reporting requirements to include entities that employ or contract with individuals for financial compensation, including ride-sharing and delivery service technology platforms.

      Under current law, employers and labor organizations are required to report certain information to the Department of Human Services regarding employees or persons to whom the employer anticipates paying earnings.  The law requires this information to be reported to the department within 20 days of the hiring, re-hiring, or return to work of the employee.

      The bill expands these existing reporting requirements to include employers, labor organizations, and other entities that employ or contract with any person for financial compensation.  Financial compensation includes compensation from a technology platform used for ride-sharing or delivery services.
