California SB 1162 - Labor Contractor Employee Report

One missed compliance filing.
$50,000 in penalties.

California requires every staffing supply chain with 100+ contingent workers and any CA presence to file a Labor Contractor Employee Report every May. Almost nobody is filing it cleanly. PayDataOps is the AI-native workflow that fixes that.

RY 2026 filing window: Feb 2 to May 13, 2027. We have time. Most teams won't.

Why this is hard

1

Five different systems hold the data you need to file. None of them were designed to talk to each other.

2

The client has the bill rate. The staffing agency has the actual pay rate. The VMS has the worker but not the job category.

3

As of RY 2024, "unknown" demographic data is no longer permitted. Most agencies have it on 20 to 40 percent of workers.

Four AI capabilities. One annual filing window.

Everything below runs against Claude. Sonnet 4.6 for reasoning, Haiku 4.5 for high-volume extraction.

EEO-1 Job Crosswalk

An LLM maps any staffing-agency job title to the correct EEO-1 category with reasoning. No manual crosswalk table to maintain. Try it live below.

Agentic Supplier Extraction

Agents read whatever the supplier sends. CSV, PDF, email attachment. Normalize to a canonical schema. Surface the data-quality gaps before April.

Conversational Re-Solicitation

SMS-first, white-labeled to the agency. AI texts contingent workers in the agency's voice and collects missing demographic data with sensitive framing.

Audit Trail + CRD Response

Immutable filing snapshots for the full 10-year CRD retention window. If the state opens an inquiry, an AI drafts the response packet from the source records.

Tiered per filing

One flat fee. No per-worker billing surprises. Discovery sprint scopes the engagement before you commit.

Tier 1
$35K
per filing
1 to 250 CA workers
Tier 2
$65K
per filing
250 to 1,000 CA workers
Tier 3
$95K
per filing
1,000+ CA workers

Engagements start with a paid $15K to $25K discovery sprint over 4 to 6 weeks. Maps your suppliers, audits the current process, scopes the pilot. Converts into the per-filing fee above if we move forward.

Free RY 2025 audit

RY 2025 just closed on May 13. If you filed, your report has gaps. If you didn't file, your exposure is $100 per worker on the first failure. We will run a 2-week audit of your filing (or non-filing) and surface where you stand. No cost. No obligation.
