Calfornia Public Works

JOB-SITE BINDER REQUIREMENT

(CALIFORNIA PUBLIC WORKS)

Some documents are specific to your company, such as:

Wage Determination and Increases
Copy of Contractor License
Copy of Worker's Compensation Certificate or your Self-Insured Certificate
Copy of DIR Registration
Redacted Certified Payroll (unless you are on a project for longer than 30-days, you will never have a certified payroll report in your project binder)

Other documents are generalized and can be found on the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) website. These include:

Job-site posters as applicable to your company and type of work
Industrial Welfare Commission Order (IWC Order 16-2001)

SUGGESTED METHOD OF COMPLIANCE

1. Create several different binders and place them in a central location in your office. When your crew is assigned to a Public Works project, have them grab a binder.

2. Have the binders returned.

3. Update the binders on a regular basis (at least monthly)

4. In the front of the binder, have the information that does not change or does not

change often. (Contractor's License, DIR registration, worker's comp, job-site posters, etc)

5. Use tabs at the back of the binder to tab out for individual projects. This is where you can keep the wage determinations and the redacted certified payrolls.

REMEMBER.....

The job-site binder is there for the employees. The employees must be aware of the binder and where to locate it. It is becoming common practice for compliance personnel tasked by the DIR, awarding body or the union to come to the job-site and ask to see this information.

Federal Contracts

JOB-SITE POSTING REQUIREMENT

(FEDERAL CONTRACTS)

Prime Contractor: the responsibility of job site postings are placed on the prime contractor. If you are the prime contractor, make sure that you work with the awarding body to fully understand your posting requirements as they may vary per project. Also ensure that they are accessible to all personnel on that project. You do not want to put them in a location that locks up at night, as the night shift would not have access.

You can use the eLaws Poster Advisor feature as found on the Department of Labor's website to discover what postings may be required for your project.

Subcontractor: while the posting responsibilities will typically fall on the awarding body and the prime contractor - you will want to ensure that your team has access to those postings. Ensure to inform your crew where that information can be found. Also, provide any information that is being requested of you.
