Clarifications on California Pay Data Reports

-

 The Compliance Department reported this back in January.  

Inclusion in the pay data report depends on where your staff may live and/or report to work:

  • If employees/labor contractors telework outside of California but are assigned to a California establishment, they are to be included in the pay data report1;
     
  • If employees/labor contractors telework from California and are assigned to an out-of-state establishment, they should be included in the report;
     

  • Employees/labor contractors assigned to a California establishment and who work at client sites out of state should be reported;

  • Employees/labor contractors who live in California but physically work at an establishment outside of CA do not need to be included in the report.

1 This includes all employees who work remotely and are not assigned to other locations, and thus are assigned by default to the company’s California HQ. In addition, if the remote workers are working from California but assigned to a HQ outside of California, they are included in the report.

Compliance will update as necessary.
