The bill amends the Construction Workplace Misclassification Act, specifically Section 3, by adding a new subsection that establishes criteria for independent contractors in the construction industry. The new language specifies that evidence of an individual's registration as a contractor under the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act will serve as prima facie evidence that the individual qualifies as an independent contractor when performing services in the construction sector.

This amendment aims to clarify the status of independent contractors and streamline the verification process for their classification. The bill is set to take effect 60 days after its enactment.
