California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified August 25, 2026

What AB 1515 does, verified August 25, 2026

<p>This bill would require anyone offering professional employer services to register with the state. To register, they would have to pay an initial fee that is not more than the cost of registration. The bill aims to regulate professional employer organizations (PEOs) by treating them as employers for taxes and other obligations. It would also give the state the authority to enforce labor laws by creating a division within the Department of Industrial Relations. This division would be headed by the Labor Commissioner, who would be responsible for enforcing labor laws and regulations related to PEOs.</p>
