LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1060, as introduced, Mendoza. Public Employees’ Retirement Law: employer contributions: notification.

The Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) establishes the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS), which provides pension and other benefits to members of PERS. PERL requires certain public employers to contribute moneys to PERS. Existing law prohibits the state, school employers, and contracting agencies, as defined, from refusing to pay the employers’ contribution as required by PERL.

This bill would require a contracting agency that fails to make a required contribution to PERS to notify members of the delinquency within 30 days, as specified.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

Section 20831.3 is added to the Government Code, to read:

20831.3.

A contracting agency that fails to pay the employer’s contribution required by this chapter within the applicable time limitations shall notify the member of the agency’s delinquency by mail, to the member’s latest address, within 30 days of the delinquent payment.
