Bill Summary
Relative to workplace safety
AI Summary
This bill aims to improve workplace safety by requiring contractors and subcontractors bidding on government contracts over $50,000 to disclose any Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) citations, notices, decisions, or civil judgments against their company within the past 4 years. The awarding authority must then consider this information in determining if the contractor is responsible. The bill also requires contractors to disclose any OSHA violations by their subcontractors, and for trench excavation permit applicants to disclose any prior OSHA violations, permit suspensions or revocations, fines, or immediate shutdowns of their work sites. The goal is to ensure that the government awards contracts to responsible companies with a demonstrated commitment to workplace safety.
