AB 1675 California Assembly · 2011-2012 Regular Session

Farm labor contractors: licenses: civil penalty.

Summary
Existing law requires farm labor contractors to be licensed by the Labor Commissioner and to comply with specified employment laws applicable to farm labor contractors. Under existing law, a person who violates farm labor contractor requirements is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by specified fines, or imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 6 months, or both. This bill, in addition, would subject a violator of the requirement that a farm labor contractor be licensed to citations issued by the Labor Commissioner and civil penalties that increase as the number of citations for violations increase. The bill would provide that the civil penalties collected under the above-described provisions shall be deposited into the Farmworker Remedial Account and be available, upon appropriation by the Legislature, for purposes of regulating farm labor contractors.
