Employee protections; wage and hour, health and safety, and mining safety provisions.
Continued from last session
Summary
The bill forces state agencies, localities and contractors on public‑works projects to pay the prevailing wage and follow strict safety rules. It also tells the Labor Commissioner, the Safety and Health Codes Board, and the Department of Energy to adopt Virginia regulations that match federal wage, OSHA, or mine‑safety laws if those federal laws are repealed, revoked, amended, or interpreted to be less protective. Penalties, record‑keeping and private‑right‑of‑action provisions are added to enforce compliance.
