⚠️ Attention Southern California employers: CORCA is worth watching.

The Combating Organized Retail Crime Act of 2025 (CORCA) introduced in Congress a year ago and still working its way through the legislative process would expand federal oversight of cargo theft and supply chain crime. More federal involvement means more compliance expectations, more complex workplace investigations, and higher stakes for employers in retail, trucking, and logistics.

If your business touches the supply chain, now is the time to make sure your employment practices can withstand increased scrutiny.
