In comparison to other states, California is an attractive location for international employers, ranking first in the United States in the number of employees supported by United States subsidiaries.(h) California’s trade and investment policy is a living document that should be regularly updated to reflect emerging business trends and the changing needs of California businesses and workers.(Added by Stats. 2006, Ch. 663, Sec. 2. Effective January 1, 2007.)
