Summary

Existing law subjects employers to various requirements related to the payment of wages. Existing law generally requires that if an employer discharges an employee, the wages earned and unpaid at the time of discharge are due and payable immediately. Existing law establishes specific provisions that entitle an employee engaged in the production or broadcasting of motion pictures, as defined, whose employment terminates, to receive payment of the wages earned and unpaid at the time of the termination by the next regular payday, as defined. Existing law establishes penalties for certain violations relating to payment in accordance with these specific provisions. This bill would establish similar specific provisions for a print shoot employee, as defined. Under existing law, the willful refusal to pay wages due and payable after demand is made, or falsely denying indebtedness for an employee's wages with prescribed intent, is a crime. By establishing new wage payment provisions, the willful or intentional violation of which would be a crime, the 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 declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
