WA SB6302

Contractors and subcontractors on public works projects are limited to engaging no more than two independent contractors to perform "covered finishing work" (drywall, flooring, tiling, painting, and glazier/glasswork)

Violations of the two-independent-contractor limit result in automatic reclassification of all finishing work individuals as laborers under prevailing wage law and employees under workers' compensation law (Title 51 RCW)

Amends RCW 39.12.100 to specify that existing independent contractor criteria do not apply to finishing trade workers who are reclassified as laborers due to violations

Amends workers' compensation statutes (RCW 51.08.185 and 51.08.195) to include reclassified finishing trade workers within the definition of "employee" and exclude them from independent contractor exemptions
