LC 423 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Revise laws related to construction contractors

This bill updates Montana's laws governing construction contractors by transferring their registration from the Department of Commerce to the Department of Labor and Industry. It establishes clear licensing requirements, mandating that contractors provide personal identification, workers' compensation proof, and owner information when applying for a license. The legislation also defines unprofessional conduct, including criminal convictions related to fraud or violence, and creates a consumer education program to inform the public about licensing standards. Additionally, the bill sets up a fee structure to fund enforcement and directs fines to an uninsured employers' fund.
