The Senate convened today at 11 a.m.
S. B. 474 was passed 21-12 with one member absent. The bill would make certified payrol documents (name and address of the employer, identification of the payroll number and work week ending date, name of the project location, contract number, employees, employee work classifications and job titles, county and state of employee’s residence, days and hours worked, hourly rate or other compensation, withholdings and deductions, and net pay) considered “confidential and proprietary.” This would make the documents not a part of the public record and no longer part of the Freedom of Information Act.
