An Act regarding trash and recycling collectors, moving contractors, and motor bus pupil transporters

This bill requires Massachusetts public entities (like cities, towns, or school districts) to include specific wage rates in contracts with trash/recycling collectors, moving companies, and school bus transportation providers. The rates, set by the state commissioner, must cover all wages plus health/welfare or pension payments, and must be paid directly to workers if no plans exist. Workers who believe their wages were violated can sue after 90 days (or sooner with attorney general approval), seeking triple damages, lost wages, and legal fees. The law directly affects employees in these three sectors when working on public contracts.
