Summary

Existing law defines "public works," for purposes of regulating public works contracts, as, among other things, construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work that is performed under contract and paid for in whole or in part out of public funds. Pursuant to existing law, all workers employed on public works projects are required to be paid not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for work, except as specified. Existing law governing public works does not apply to specified work performed by a volunteer, a volunteer coordinator, or a member of the California Conservation Corps or a community conservation corps. These provisions are effective only until January 1, 2012, and as of that date are repealed. This bill would extend that repeal date to January 1, 2017, and make technical, nonsubstantive changes to that provision. Existing law also requires the Director of Industrial Relations to submit a report to the Legislature before January 1, 2011, regarding volunteers on public projects. This bill would repeal that provision. This bill also would make legislative findings and declarations regarding the intent of the bill.
