Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend the labor law, in relation to requiring all workers to be provided with a pay stub
Purpose or general idea of bill
This bill is to ensure that workers understand what they are being paid and that they are being paid the correct amounts under prevailing wage rate laws.
Summary of specific provisions
This bill's provisions improve notice to employees about their respective rights to receive prevailing wage rates whether through direct payor supplements by requiring that workers' pay stub set forth the hours worked, the job classification, the prevailing wage rate and the supplement paid to such employee, including sums which are paid directly to the employee and which are expended for supplements.
Justification
Many workers are unaware of their rights to receive prevailing wage rates of pay. Further workers at times cannot easily ascertain if they are being paid the correct amounts given that to meet the requirement to pay prevailing wage an employer may make direct payments and supplements. This bill would require that employees receive sufficient information so each worker can determine if he or she is receiving the correct prevailing rate of pay.
