The bill would require the Employment Development Department, in consultation with the Franchise Tax Board, the Department of Justice, the Department of Insurance, the Labor and Workforce Development Agency, and industry representatives, to develop and implement a set of criteria that, if met by an employer, would trigger a recommendation for an audit or investigation by appropriate state tax authorities to determine if the employer is in violation of statutes relating to employee wages, hours, and working conditions. After July 1, 2011, this bill would require the Employment Development Department to take specified actions with respect to an employer when application of the set of criteria indicates that a violation of the statutes described above may have occurred.
