Bill Summary

Relative to transparency in employee benefits reporting in private construction. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill aims to increase transparency in employee benefits reporting for private construction projects in Massachusetts. It requires employers involved in construction projects exceeding $750,000 to post a roster of their onsite employees and independent contractors, as well as a certificate of compliance from the state Department of Labor and Workforce Development, at a conspicuous location on the jobsite. This information can be inspected by local building departments, city or town inspectional services, or inspectors designated by the state Attorney General. The bill amends existing laws related to unemployment insurance and workers' compensation to include these new transparency requirements for larger private construction projects.
