INTRODUCED BY   Senator Walters

	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1373, as introduced, Walters. Workers' compensation:
self-insure.
   Existing law prohibits, for purposes of workers' compensation, a
certificate of consent to self-insure from being issued after January
1, 2013, to a professional employer organization, a leasing
employer, a temporary services employer, or any employer which the
Director of Industrial Relations determines is in the business of
providing employees to other employers. A certificate of consent to
self-insure that had already been issued to any of these employers
shall be revoked by the director not later than January 1, 2015.
   This bill would repeal the above prohibition on certificates of
consent to self-insure from being issued to those employers.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
