A 6100 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Concerns enforcement of public work project requirements; establishes penalties for failure to submit payroll records.

This bill strengthens enforcement of New Jersey's public works wage laws by requiring contractors and subcontractors to submit certified payroll records within 10 days of wage payments. It establishes new civil penalties: $1,000 per project per day for late submissions, $15,000 for a first false payroll submission (rising to $25,000 for repeat offenses), and $10,000 per subcontract for knowingly using unregistered subcontractors. Contractors failing to comply face extended bans from public projects - three years for initial violations, five years for two or more violations like repeated late submissions or false records. These changes apply to all public work projects requiring prevailing wage payments under existing law.
