The Biggest Crime in California's Workforce is Hiding in Plain Sight.

Fraudulent temp staffing agencies are stealing wages, evading taxes, and operating without insurance—robbing workers, honest businesses, and our state and Federal governments of billions of dollars.

Who We Are

POWER is a nonprofit coalition dedicated to taking action against fraud and criminal activity in California’s temporary staffing industry. We exist to protect workers, defend honest employers, and ensure California’s workers’ compensation system and

economy are not drained by lawless operators.

An Unregulated Playground for Criminals

The temporary staffing industry is plagued by bad actors who flout the law to make insane profits illegally. Their fraud has a devastating ripple effect:

  • For Workers

    Wage theft, abandoned injury claims, and zero protections.

  • For Honest Businesses

    You can't compete with cheaters who skip insurance and taxes.

  • For California

    Billions stolen from the Uninsured Employers Benefits Trust Fund (UEBTF), lost tax revenue, higher costs for legitimate employers, drained public resources meant for injured workers, and an economy weakened by lawless operators.

  • For Federal Government

    Fraudulent agencies cheat federal payroll taxes, dodge Social Security and Medicare contributions, and trigger federal investigations that cost taxpayers millions. These schemes erode trust in the labor market and burden every law-abiding American.

This isn't a broken system, it's a hijacked one.

Cheaters Are Destroying the Staffing Industry

Their Illegal Tactics

  • No Workers’ Comp. Slashing costs by skipping insurance.

  • Tax Evasion. Underreporting payroll by millions.

  • Wage Theft. Exploiting workers to underbid you.

The Result

They steal your clients, depress market rates, and put your business at risk.

We Are POWER. We Expose and Stop Staffing Fraud.

The Professional Organization for Workers Employment Rights is a targeted action coalition. We are not here to fix the entire workers' comp system. We are here to dismantle the criminal element within the temporary staffing industry.

We are an ally to regulators, law enforcement, and lawmakers, providing the evidence and the public pressure needed to hold the villains accountable.

POWER Mission Statement

The Professional Organization for Workers Employment Rights exists to take direct action against fraud and criminal activity in California’s temporary staffing industry.

Our mission is to expose temporary staffing agencies and their clients who operate without workers’ compensation insurance, evade payroll taxes, commit wage theft, and openly ignore state labor laws. By shining a light on these illegal practices, we protect workers’ rights and benefits, defend honest employers from unfair competition, and safeguard the funding of California’s workers’ compensation system.

A Level Playing Field is Possible

Imagine a California where:

  • Every temporary worker receives fair pay, safe conditions, and guaranteed protections.

  • Honest businesses can compete without being undercut by criminals.

  • The state’s funds support injured workers, not line the pockets of fraudsters.

This is not a pipe dream. This is our mission.
