Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill makes contractors and their construction subcontractors, as well as employment agencies and employers, jointly responsible for certain labor law violations. It also requires the subcontractor or employment agency to pay back the contractor or employer for any costs, like wages or fees, resulting from their violations, unless a contract states otherwise or the violation was due to late payment. This would affect workers in the construction industry and those employed through temporary staffing agencies.
