For legislation to establish a prevailing wage for security guard services. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill aims to establish a prevailing wage for security guard services in Massachusetts. The key provisions of the bill are: 1) Expanding the existing prevailing wage law, which currently covers cleaning and maintenance services, to also include security guard services; and 2) Updating the language in the existing law to reflect the inclusion of security guard services alongside cleaning and maintenance services. This change would ensure that security guards receive a minimum wage in line with the prevailing wage rate for that type of work, providing better protections for these workers.
