The purpose of this bill is to clarify the obligations of a contractor or subcontractor with regard to minimum prevailing wage rates for work performed on a public improvement project under a contract awarded by a state agency, and to clarify that a worker’s right of action for recovery from a contractor or subcontractor for nonpayment of minimum prevailing wage rates applies only when the contract awarded by a state agency expressly requires payment of minimum prevailing wage rates. The changes are intended to have retroactive application.
