FINAL JEOPARDY
The objective of the classification system is to group employers into classifications so that each classification reflects the risk of loss common to those employers.
•With few exceptions, it is the business of the employer within California that is classified, not the separate employments, occupations or operations within the business.
•When classifying specific operations, it is first necessary to determine the context of the operations, which is the business of the employer
In the next activity determine the type of business operation and classify each employee.
ABC does not segregate payroll records by class codes, thus payroll for high wage employees is classified as 5432 and low wage employees are classified as 5403.
The employer does not meet the requirements for 5606 as there are not to levels of supervision. The employees classified by the employer as 5606 should be reclassified as 5432.
The employees performing job site cleanup shall be reclassified to 5403. 5610 is only applicable if all construction is subcontracted out and 5606 applies. The employer would not qualify for janitorial as they do not provide this service to customers on a fee basis for separate concerns. The jobsite cleanup is part of the service provided.
The clerical employee would be reclassified as 8810 as they do not spend more than 50% of their time working remotely.
