Bill > S07340

This bill amends the labor law to require the disclosure of certain employment statistics and demographics for construction projects that receive state financial assistance. Key provisions include: - Defining terms such as "state financial assistance," "covered contractor," "covered developer," and "covered project" to determine which projects are subject to the disclosure requirements. - Requiring covered developers to provide quarterly workforce disclosure records, including information on hours worked, job titles, wages, and demographics (gender, race/ethnicity) of workers. - Directing the administering agency (the Department of Labor) to publicly report on the workforce data and trends for covered projects. - Establishing recordkeeping and enforcement mechanisms, including civil penalties for violations. - The bill will take effect 180 days after becoming law, with the administering agency authorized to promulgate necessary rules and regulations prior to the effective date.
