California employers with 100 or more payroll or labor contractor employees are required to annually submit pay data – including hours worked and employee demographics – to the California Civil Rights Department (CRD).   

This year’s filing deadline for the 2024 reporting year is May 14, 2025. 

With the deadline fast approaching employers should begin accessing the CRD’s Pay Data Reporting portal to review the required pay data reports. Updated templates to assist in preparing 2024 reports can be found on the portal along with instructions, a User Guide, and helpful FAQs.
