Bill H.337 proposes to enhance the transparency of enforcement actions taken by the Commissioner of Labor in Vermont regarding violations of wage and hour laws, prevailing wage, and child labor regulations. The bill amends current law to require the Commissioner or their agent to conduct examinations and investigations to ensure compliance with these laws. Additionally, it mandates the publication of information related to enforcement actions by the Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Program, which will include details on minimum wage, overtime, prevailing wage, and child labor violations. This information will be made available in a searchable format on a publicly accessible website, while ensuring the anonymity of complainants and excluding data older than six years.

The bill also specifies that it will take effect on July 1, 2025. The proposed changes aim to improve accountability and public awareness regarding labor law enforcement in Vermont, thereby promoting fair labor practices and protecting workers' rights.
