H.B. No. 5122 proposes an amendment to the Labor Code by adding Section 302.0064, which outlines new responsibilities for the Texas Workforce Commission regarding child-care resources for employers. The bill mandates that the Commission maintain a dedicated web page on its website that provides comprehensive and up-to-date information to assist employers in supporting their employee parents with child care. This information will include details on child-care assistance, best practices, available tax credits, dependent care savings accounts, free tools or templates, and relevant policies and benefits that employers may adopt.

Additionally, the web page must clarify that the Commission does not provide legal advice and that employers are not obligated to implement any policies or benefits listed unless required by other laws. The Texas Workforce Commission is required to have this information posted by February 1, 2026, and the Act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
