AI Summary

  • Requires the Contractors' State License Board enforcement division to have free access to all places of labor when participating in Joint Enforcement Strike Force on the Underground Economy activities.

  • Expands unlicensed contractor prohibition to include performing work under a suspended license for failure to pay civil penalties or resolve outstanding liabilities, making it a misdemeanor offense.

  • Restricts unlicensed persons from advertising construction work unless the aggregate contract price is less than $500 and they disclose being unlicensed in the advertisement.

  • Extends the timeframe for the registrar to initiate disciplinary action against licensees from 30 days to 180 days after receiving notification of Labor Code violations from the Labor Commissioner.

  • Clarifies that no state reimbursement is required for local agencies or school districts since the bill only changes criminal penalties and definitions related to existing crimes.
