California amends pay stub rules

The state has amended existing law that requires each state agency, at the time of each payment of salary or wages, to furnish an employee, at his or her discretion, an itemized statement in writing or electronically showing all deductions made from salary or wages. The new law will require that the statement be provided electronically to each employee who has authorized the direct deposit by electronic fund transfer of his or her salary or wages, unless the employee has asked to receive a paper version of the statement. ( S.L. 37, Laws 2009, enacted October 11, 2009.)
