Favorable Action — Ordinance: An ordinance promoting fair labor standards and preventing wage theft in the City of Everett
9. C0056-26 Ordinance/s/ Councilor Stephanie Martins, Councilor Vivian Nguyen, Councilor Wayne Matewsky, Councilor Katy Rogers, Councilor Anthony DiPierro, Councilor Holly Garcia, Councilor Guerline Alcy Jabouin An ordinance promoting fair labor standards and preventing wage theft in the City of Everett. Councilor Capone stated she doesn't think the city of Everett can enforce all the issues within the ordinance. Councilor Pietrantonio echoed concerns about enforcement, noting a speaker said it took three years to settle a case through the state. Councilor Martins stated this is not about the city enforcing; the attorney general is the enforcing entity. She explained the city is choosing not to do business with contractors that have judgments or are debarred for violations. The ordinance requires contractors to maintain industrial accident insurance coverage, properly classify employees, maintain daily sign-in and sign-out logs, comply with health care reform law, and submit monthly certified payroll records. She said this creates standards for contracts and a reporting system where employees can report violations. Motion for favorable action as amended for enrollment.
