What’s in it

AI summary People who recruit or bring workers to construction sites in Iowa would now be considered construction contractors. This change means these labor brokers must follow the same registration rules as other contractors. If they break these rules, they can face fines starting at $500 and going up to $5,000 for later violations.1

Read the official explanation

This bill provides that a contractor, for purposes of Code chapter 91C relating to registration of construction contractors, includes a labor broker or recruiter who brings one or more workers to a construction job site in Iowa. Code chapter 91C provides for administrative penalties of not more than $500 in the case of a first violation and not more than $5,000 for each subsequent violation.
