Bill H.337 proposes to enhance the responsibilities of the Commissioner of Labor in Vermont by mandating the public disclosure of enforcement actions against employers who violate wage and hour laws, prevailing wage laws, and child labor laws. 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 stipulates that the Commissioner must publish information regarding enforcement actions taken by the Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Program, specifically concerning minimum wage, overtime, prevailing wage, and child labor violations.

The published information will be made available in a searchable format on a publicly accessible website, while ensuring the confidentiality of complainants and excluding any information that is older than six years. The bill also establishes an effective date for these changes, set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
