Concerns requirements to report separations from employment under employee leasing agreements.

This bill clarifies that businesses using employee leasing services (client companies) must handle and report separations from employment for leased workers, not the staffing agencies (employee leasing companies). It requires client companies to comply with state reporting rules under R.S. 43:21-6 and bear full liability for penalties if they fail to report separations. The law shifts responsibility from staffing agencies to the businesses directly employing the workers through leasing arrangements. This change specifically applies to reporting requirements for separations, not other aspects of employment. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
