The bill amends the Public Works Minimum Wage Act to include a new definition for "site of the project." This definition now encompasses not only the physical location of a public works project but also any off-site fabrication locations involved in the production of heating, cooling, ventilation, or exhaust duct systems that are integral to the project. This change aims to clarify the scope of where public works regulations apply, ensuring that off-site fabrication is included under the same standards as on-site work.

Additionally, the bill specifies that its provisions will apply to requests for proposals, invitations for bids, or other procurement processes for public works projects that are issued on or after July 1, 2025. This timeline allows for a transition period for stakeholders to adapt to the new definitions and requirements established by the legislation.
