CTA in Action: Government Affairs Update
Compliance and Regulatory News
CTA has received a few inquiries from some LTL member carriers regarding clarification on how HM securement laws are being enforced. In response to the inquiries and in an effort to provide members with the best information, CTA has reached out to the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and has requested that a HM securement information session be presented to interested members.
Beginning January 1, 2017, employers with 10 or more employees will be required to electronically submit employment tax returns, wage reports, and payroll tax deposits to the Employment Development Department (EDD). All remaining employers will be subject to this requirement beginning January 1, 2018. Any employer required under existing law to electronically submit wage reports and/or electronic funds transfer to the EDD will remain subject to those requirements.
