Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the labor law, in relation to inclusion of certain offsite custom fabrication as public work for the purposes of payment of prevailing wage

AI Summary

This bill amends the New York labor law to ensure that custom fabrication work performed off-site for a public works project is compensated at the prevailing wage rate. The bill defines "custom fabrication" broadly to include specialized components like wall panels, woodwork, electrical systems, plumbing, ductwork, rebar cages, and mechanical insulation that are specifically designed for a particular public works project. Contractors and subcontractors performing such off-site fabrication work will be required to pay workers the same prevailing wage rate that would be paid to on-site workers at the project location, even if the fabrication occurs in a different jurisdiction. Additionally, these contractors must maintain and submit certified payrolls for off-site workers and provide detailed reporting to the department of jurisdiction, including information about the fabricator, materials being created, estimated costs, and number of workers involved. The bill applies to state, municipal, and public benefit corporation contracts, with an exception for projects involving federal funding. The legislation will take effect 180 days after becoming law and will only apply to contracts put out to bid after that date.
