Relates to owner liability for construction industry wage theft

This bill expands liability for construction project owners and contractors by making them jointly responsible for unpaid wages owed to employees of subcontractors at any level. It requires owners and contractors to pay debts resulting from wage theft claims made against subcontractors, while allowing them to seek reimbursement from the subcontractor afterward. The law establishes specific procedures including a 10-day notice period before legal action, limits claims to three years prior to filing, and clarifies that these obligations cannot be waived by individual employees or subcontractors except through collective bargaining agreements. The bill applies to most construction contracts but excludes certain residential home improvement projects and small residential developments.
