This bill amends various laws to: 1. Create a new employee's lien remedy, allowing employees to place a lien on their employer's real and personal property to secure unpaid wages. The bill specifies the procedures for filing and enforcing these liens. 2. Expand the grounds for attachment orders in civil lawsuits to include wage claims, and establish a streamlined process for obtaining such orders in wage claim cases. 3. Provide new rights for employees of non-publicly traded corporations and limited liability companies to hold the ten largest shareholders or members personally liable for unpaid wages, and to access corporate records to identify those responsible parties. 4. Enhance notification requirements to employees regarding the outcome of wage claim investigations and enforcement actions by the Department of Labor and Attorney General. The bill is intended to strengthen protections and remedies for employees seeking to recover unpaid wages.
