An Act relative to workplace safety and disclosure of violations

This bill requires government contractors and subcontractors working on contracts over $50,000 to disclose any recent Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) violations within the past four years, including whether safety hazards were corrected. It applies to all companies bidding on state procurement contracts and to trench excavation permit applicants, who must submit written disclosures about safety violations, fines, or site shutdowns. Contractors must update this information every six months during contract performance and provide documentation verifying hazard corrections. The law aims to ensure government agencies consider workplace safety records when awarding contracts, without restricting other legal rights.
