Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance
Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Construction Site Temporary Restroom Facility Act. Changes the Act's short title to the Construction Site Temporary Restroom Facility and Sanitary Conditions for Menstruation and Lactation Act. Repeals a provision which specifies that separate toileting facilities are not required for males and females if individual portable toilet facilities are used by an owner of a portable building or building under construction to provide access to a restroom. Provides that, if a woman or an individual who menstruates is present on a work site and there are 10 or more workers of any gender at the work site, then a separate toilet facility shall be provided at the work site and designated for use by women and individuals who menstruate. Requires the Department of Labor to adopt rules that govern construction safety standards, that apply only to employers in the construction industry, and that require employers in the construction industry to provide their workers who menstruate and are performing construction activities at a work site with minimum sanitary conditions and, upon request, to provide their workers who are lactating and are performing construction activities at a work site with reasonable accommodations necessary to express breast milk. Provides that, at multi-employer work sites, each employer is responsible for ensuring that facilities for their own workers are provided. Authorizes employees of construction sites to call the certified local public health agency to request an inspection of the construction site if noncompliance with the Act is suspected. Effective immediately.
