The act requires that an applicant for a building permit or a construction permit for a project with a total construction cost of more than $1 million (permit) file with the permitting agency, prior to commencing work under the permit, a signed declaration under penalty of perjury verifying that any person working under the permit maintains valid workers' compensation insurance coverage for the duration of the permit.
A person may file a complaint with the division of workers' compensation in the department of labor and employment alleging a person's workers' compensation insurance coverage is not in compliance with the state's workers' compensation laws.
