It includes: • subcontractors who have entered into a contract with another contractor to
perform a portion of the work on a public works project.
• sole proprietors and brokers who are responsible for performing work on a public works project, even if they do not have employees or will not use their own employees to perform the work.
Who is a Public Works contractor?
1. Must be registered when bidding, listed in a bid proposal, or engaged in the performance of any contract for public work (Labor Codes §§1725.5 & 1771.1)
Contractors who are bidding on, listed on bid proposals, awarded a contract for, or working on a public works project.

• A total contract cost of $25,000 or less when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work
