Bill overview
This bill updates California’s rules for state government contracts to combat forced labor and human trafficking. It requires contractors to certify that their goods and services don’t involve these practices and that their contracts comply with specific requirements. The bill expands sanctions for non-compliance, including the ability to remove employees and terminate subcontractors, and strengthens reporting obligations to ensure transparency and accountability. It also addresses potential reimbursement requirements for local agencies.
