On May 29, 2019, the California State Assembly passed Assembly Bill 25. The bill now moves to the state senate for a vote. If the state senate passes the bill, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) would be amended to specifically exclude job applicants, employees, agents, and contractors from the definition of “consumer,” thereby alleviating substantial obligations for employers whose only relationship to the new law were its employees.
