A bill presented to Kaua‘i County Council on Wednesday intends to rein in unfair labor practices by requiring permit-holders to disclose information on contractors working on site.
Draft Bill No. 2873 adds a section to the county code requiring contractors to keep their permits up to date with current information on the licensed contractors working on projects, and requires disclosure of any violations and disciplinary actions against permitted contractors.
“We want to ensure that there’s up-to-date information that the licensed contractors working on the project are the contractors that are actually working on the project,”said County Managing Director Mike Dahilig, who presented the bill to the council.
