Whose duty is it to notify the registrar of an RME leaving or disassociating?

  1. The RME's duty

  2. The contractor's duty

  3. Both the RME and the contractor's duty

  4. It is not required to notify

The correct answer is: Both the RME and the contractor's duty

The responsibility to notify the registrar when a Responsible Managing Employee (RME) leaves or disassociates lies with both the RME and the contractor. This dual obligation ensures that the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) is updated on changes in the management structure of licensed contractors. By having both parties involved in this notification, it protects the integrity of the contractor's license. The RME plays a key role in overseeing the operations and ensuring compliance with state regulations. Thus, their departure can significantly impact the business, and timely notification helps prevent any potential issues with licensure or operations. This requirement is part of the regulatory framework that underpins contractor licensing in California, ensuring that all management changes are transparent and properly recorded, which aids in maintaining professional standards in the industry.
