HB 3448

Abstract

Amends the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act. Provides that every primary contractor and subcontractor shall post and keep posted, in one or more conspicuous places on the premises where work is being performed, a notice, to be made available by the Director of Labor, summarizing specified requirements under the Act and information pertaining to the filing of a complaint. Provides that the Director shall provide copies of summaries and rules to primary contractors and subcontractors upon request without charge. Provides that any primary contractor or subcontractor who fails to provide notice as required shall be subject to a civil penalty, not to exceed $250, payable to the Department of Labor. Effective July 1, 2023. Senate Committee Amendment No. 1 Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill with the following changes: Provides that the notice shall be posted in one or more conspicuous places accessible to all laborers, workers, and mechanics at a job site (rather than the premises where work is being performed). Provides that one copy of the notice at a job site shall satisfy the notice requirement for the primary contractor and all subcontractors. Effective July 1, 2023.
