	AMENDED IN ASSEMBLY  MARCH 21, 2013

INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Williams

                        FEBRUARY 22, 2013

    An act relating to employment.   An act to
add Section 1173.5 to the Labor Code, relating to employment. 


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1082, as amended, Williams.  Employee records.
  Employment records: report.  
   Existing law requires every person employing labor to provide the
Industrial Welfare Commission with any report or information the
commission requires to carry out its duties, including, but not
limited to, records showing the names and addresses of all employees
employed and the ages of all minors.  
   This bill would require an employer who employs 50 or more
full-time equivalent employees to annually report to the Employment
Development Department specified information relating to the average
number of hours each employee worked per week in a calendar year and
whether those employees were enrolled in minimum essential coverage,
as defined, under an eligible employer-sponsored health care plan.
 
   The Labor Code requires employers to maintain specified records of
their employees, including, but not limited to, the names and
addresses of all employees employed and the ages of all minors.
 
   This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation to require employers to keep records of the number of
hours each employee worked per week and whether the employer provided
each employee with health insurance for the period of employment.
