Which entity is included as an Employer under LC 3300?

• A. State And Every State Agency
• B. A Private Bowling Team Sponsor
• C. A Private Nonprofit Organization Sponsoring A Person Under Court Sentence
• D. A Person Performing Officiating Services For Amateur Sports

Answer: (A)

The key idea is who counts as an employer under California workers’ compensation law. LC 3300 explicitly includes public entities, so the State and every state agency are considered employers for purposes of the workers’ compensation system. This ensures that state workers receive the same protections as employees of private employers.

The other scenarios describe private entities or individuals that wouldn’t automatically be treated as employers under LC 3300 unless they actually have employees and fall within the act’s broader scope. A private bowling team sponsor, a private nonprofit sponsoring someone under court sentence, or a person providing officiating services for amateur sports are not defined as state employers under this statute. Therefore, the correct inclusion is the State and every state agency.
