Contractors “Who Cheat to Compete” Face Stiff PenaltiesNew partnership targets offenders in the multi-billion dollar underground economy

By CSLB

SACRAMENTO, CA – The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) already is seeing results from a new multi-agency partnership that targets individuals who are breaking the law and making it increas-ingly difficult for law-abiding licensed contrac-tors to compete for business. CSLB estimates that on any given day, tens of thousands of licensed contractors and unlicensed operators are break-ing the law and contributing to the state’s under-ground economy. These individuals and compa-nies will be at the top of the Labor Enforcement Task Force (LETF) target list. LETF, which was launched January 1, 2012, is comprised of investigators from CSLB, the De-partment of Industrial Relations, Employment Development Department, and Board of Equal-ization, in collaboration with the Insurance Com-missioner and Attorney General’s Office. Partners have broadened information-sharing and the use of new enforcement technology to improve the way they target businesses in the underground economy.

“Contractors need to understand that they can’t cheat to compete,” said CSLB Registrar Steve Sands. “By combining our resources and sharing information like never before, we will target and find the worst offenders, licensed or not.”

Teams of investigators are already working side-by-side and have conducted 16 targeted enforce-ment operations throughout the state since Janu-

ary 2012 that have resulted in dozens of citations and thousands of dollars in fines. The operations are not limited to weekdays; at least one opera-tion has taken place on a weekend and more are on the calendar.

A recent operation in Orange County resulted in administrative actions against a long-time il-legal operator. Benito German Lopez Cruz, 47, of Orange, is believed to have underbid legitimate contractors on plastering jobs by hundreds of thousands of dollars during the past several years. A CSLB investigator cited Lopez for contracting without a license and failing to secure workers’ compensation insurance for three employees who were working with him. The citation comes with $4,500 in fines. The Department of Industrial Relations’ Division of Labor Standards Enforce-ment issued Lopez a stop order (that prohibits the use of employee labor until they are covered by workers’ compensation insurance) and cita-tions for $7,750 in fines for failure to carry workers’ compensation and for paying employees in cash. Lopez also will be audited by the Employment Development Department.

A criminal case settled last week highlights the se-vere consequences of these types of business and contracting violations. On February 24, 2012, Mi-chael Amzie Holley, 43, of Murrieta, was sentenced to one year in jail and ordered to pay $510,000 in restitution for failing to provide workers’ com-pensation insurance for an injured employee and

failing to pay insurance premiums for unclaimed employees who were paid in cash. In 2009, CSLB revoked the contractor license of So Cal Roofing Company (#797707), owned by Holley. The crimi-nal activity came to light after an incident in March 2003, when one of Holley’s employees fell off of a roof and was injured. When that employee filed a workers’ compensation insurance claim, Holley denied that the injured employee worked for him. He also had filed paperwork with CSLB certifying that he had no employees.

According to the Orange County District Attor-ney’s Office, in February 2010 Holley agreed to plead guilty to multiple felony counts associated with insurance and tax fraud. Holley purchased a minimum workers’ compensation policy from the State Compensation Insurance Fund (SCIF) and failed to state that he employed subcontrac-tors, paid workers in cash to hide the fact that So Cal Roofing Company had workers, hired unli-censed employees, and leased employees from other companies. He received insurance based on his false declarations, allowing him to under-pay his insurance premiums. In addition, to hide the fraud and to avoid paying state taxes, Holley failed to file an accurate tax return.

In addition to construction, LETF addresses illegal activity in the agricultural, automotive, garment, restaurant, and warehouse industries. Visit www.cslb.ca.gov for more information.Source: CSLB News Bulletin #12-03

Cal OSHA Consultation ServiceRegulation Changes Update

Tuesday, March 20, 2012 from 9 to 10amLocation: SBCA Office 914 A Santa Barbara Street

Guest Speaker Dan Leiner, Area ManagerCal/OSHA Consultation Service

Cal/OSHA’s Ladder regulations were updated in January 2011 and again in January 2012. Some of the major changes includes care, use, set-up, inspection and maintenance of ladders. Employees using ladders are now required to be trained on ladder safety.

Cal/OSHA’s Personal Protective Devices regulation was updated in April 2011. These changes require employers to conduct a hazard assessment that addresses the need, selection, and use of PPE such as head, eye, face, hand, and foot protection. This information must be communicated to employees. The hazard assessment must be in writing and certified by the employer. While construction activity is exempt from the hazard assessment, work performed in shops (such as cabinet making and granite fabrication) is covered.

Cal/OSHA has kicked off a Confined Space Emphasis Initiative to educate employers and employees of the dangers of confined spaces. A confined space in the construction industry is defined as any type of space that has both of the following:

Existing ventilation that is not sufficient to remove dangerous air contamination, too little oxygen or too much oxygen which either exists or may develop. Dangerous air contamination is an atmosphere that presents a threat of causing death, injury, acute illness, or disablement due to the presence of flammable and/or explosive, toxic, or otherwise injurious or incapacitating substances.

Access for the removal for a suddenly disabled employee is difficult due to the location and/or size of the openings.

PREVENTING STRAINS AND SPRAINS

Lifting, pushing, and overreaching are common causes of strains and sprains. Any job that requires you to sit or stand bent in an awkward

position for long periods of time can cause excess stress and strain on muscles. Most strains and sprains affect the back, arms, and

shoulders. However, there are some very simple things you can do to prevent or minimize body strains and sprains.

Many strains and sprains occur because of poor material handling. Workers lift things that weigh too much or they lift incorrectly. Lift

correctly by bending your knees, not your back. Carry loads close to your body. Injuries can occur when workers try to pull or lift a heavy or

awkward object without help or lift an object while twisting from the waist. When carrying a load, avoid bending or lifting upward

unnecessarily. Keep as much of the load as you can at waist level.

Get help with heavy loads. Dont try to move or lift an object you cant handle. Instead of lifting a 75-pound load, break it down into smaller

parts. If you cant break it down, get help from a mechanical device or lift it with another worker. Make sure moving equipment works

properly or it will cause you to strain unnecessarily just trying to get it to work. If the wheels on a cart are not aligned, you could strain your

arms, shoulders, and back trying to move it.

Change your working positions frequently. Chronic strain due to an unchanging work position can weaken your back, arms, and shoulders.

Adjust working heights to prevent slumping or excessive reaching. A vicious cycle develops when chronic strain continues; muscles become

less able to withstand strenuous activity and grow more prone to injury of all kinds. Stretch during the day to increase your flexibility. Take

body relaxation breaks by letting your shoulders and neck muscles go limp; swivel your head or arms or flex your hands and fingers.

Take care of your whole body with exercise, proper posture, a sensible diet and adequate rest. If your muscles or ligaments have weakened

over time from lack of exercise or age, you are more apt to get a strain or sprain than if your are physically fit.

CÓMO EVITAR TORCEDURAS Y ESFUERZOS EXCESIVOS

Levantar o empujar objetos pesados o tratar de alcanzar demasiado lejos son causas comunes de torceduras y lesiones musculares.

Cualquier tarea que requiera sentarse o estar de pie con la cintura doblada en una posición incómoda por períodos de tiempo largos puede

ocasionar tensión y esfuerzos excesivos en los músculos. La mayoría de las torceduras afectan la espalda, los brazos y los hombros. Sin

embargo, hay cosas muy sencillas que pueden hacerse para evitar o minimizar torceduras y lesiones musculares.

Muchas torceduras y lesiones musculares ocurren por el mal manejo de objetos. Los trabajadores levantan cosas que pesan demasiado o

las levantan en forma incorrecta. La manera correcta de levantar un objeto pesado es doblando las rodillas, no la espalda. Los objetos

pesados se deben llevar cerca del cuerpo. Pueden ocurrir lesiones cuando un trabajador trata de levantar un objeto pesado o incómodo de

manejar sin pedir ayuda, o levantar un objeto pesado mientras tuerce la cintura. Cuando lleve una carga pesada, evite doblarse hacia

adelante o levantar hacia arriba innecesariamente. Mantenga lo más que pueda de la carga al nivel de la cintura.

Busque ayuda para levantar objetos pesados. No trate de mover o levantar un objeto si es demasiado pesado para usted solo. En lugar de

levantar una carga de 75 libras, divídala en cargas más pequeñas. Si no puede dividirla, use un dispositivo mecánico o levántela con la

ayuda de otra persona. Asegúrese de que los equipos para mover cargas pesadas funcionen correctamente, de otra manera usted puede

esforzarse de más simplemente tratando de hacerlos funcionar. Si las ruedas de una carretilla no están alineadas producirán exceso de

esfuerzo en los brazos, hombros y espalda cuando trate de moverla.

Cambie su posición de trabajo con frecuencia. Los esfuerzos crónicos debidos a una posición de trabajo inalterada pueden last imarle la

espalda, los brazos o los hombros. Ajuste las alturas del trabajo para evitar tener que doblarse hacia adelante o alcanzar demasiado lejos.

Cuando un esfuerzo crónico continúa, se crea un círculo vicioso; los músculos pierden su habilidad de tolerar actividades extenuantes y se

vuelven más propensos a lesiones de todo tipo. Estírese durante el día para aumentar la flexibilidad de sus músculos. Tome tiempo para

descansar dejando que los músculos de los hombros y del cuello se relajen; gire la cabeza o los brazos o flexione las manos y los dedos.

Cuide todo su cuerpo con ejercicios, buena postura, buena dieta y descanso adecuado. Si sus músculos o ligamentos se han debilitado

con el tiempo por falta de ejercicio o edad avanzada, usted tendrá más probabilidades de sufrir una torcedura, que si se encuentra en

buenas condiciones físicas.

Kalb’s Q & A for ContractorsBy David Kalb, Capitol Services, Inc.

When is a worker an employee? For contractors the question is critical to doing business legally in California. Another corporate contractor is hop-ing to ‘change horses’ now that LLC licenses are a reality. For those with the “A” we take a look “C” at what specialties you might also perform…

Q: First thank you so much for all the past advice you’ve given me. My question relates to work-man comp insurance. I read that I can no longer hire an independent employee and must pro-vide workman’s comp, even though he has his own insurance. Is this true?

A: Hiring independent employees commonly referred to as “independent contractors” has always generated questions. Either a person is your employee or a “contractor” (independent or otherwise). Employees are covered by Worker’s Compensation and have payroll taxes deducted each paycheck; whereas, licensed contractors are responsible for their own taxes, etc. So, yes you should be providing these “independent contractors” with Worker’s Comp coverage un-less they have a valid CA contractor’s license (in which case they’re a sub-contractor).

It would be very unusual for an unlicensed con-tractor to have a Worker’s Compensation insur-ance policy.

Q: Our Company is a Limited Liability Company

(LLC) based outside California. Several years ago we obtained a California license and formed a corporation because the CSLB wasn’t issuing licenses to LLC’s. We are now in the process of applying for a license in the LLC’s name and we’re moving our Qualifying Employee from the corporate license to the LLC license. The prob-lem is we still have multiple projects going on under the Corporation’s license number. We’d like to cancel the corporation’s license once the LLC license is issued, but what happens to those ongoing projects?

A: To avoid getting ‘drowned’ from changing li-censing while in the middle of a ‘stream’ of proj-ects let us suggest a better way. Once the corpo-ration license is cancelled it cannot sign any new contracts or continue work on existing projects. So rather than cancel the corporate license let it run its course. The CSLB gives you a 90-day grace period from the date you move your Qualifying Employee. During those 90 days the license re-mains in good standing as if the Qualifier was still there. During the 90-day grace period it would be best to work with the parties involved and assign all existing contracts to the LLC.

Q: I have a company with the ‘A’ license in Cali-fornia. I now want to start a separate parking lot maintenance and striping business. I’m trying to figure out the best way to move forward. I have striped many parking lots that we have built us-

ing my “A” license. If we intend to concentrate on striping with this new company, would I need to get a “C-32” license or would an “A” be sufficient? If I have to get a “C-32” I hope my experience striping lots in the past will suffice (there have been many). I would probably want to incorpo-rate this new company.

A: While the “A” (General Engineering) classifi-cation would likely suffice, I would recommend applying for the “C-32” (Parking and Highway Improvement). “A” contractors can properly han-dle a wide variety of projects that are also per-formed under a specialty “C” license. For exam-ple, General Engineering contractors can handle virtually all aspects of the “C-12” (Earthwork and Paving), “C-34” (Pipeline), “C-42” (Sanitation Sys-tems), “C-46” (Solar) and “C-32” classifications. However, what I’ve found over the years is that some owners (both public and private) specify or, at a minimum, prefer the contractor to have the specialty class. Since you have done many parking improvement projects, call us to discuss how you may qualify for a waiver of the “C-32” trade exam.

While knowledge is power, knowing where to go for the answers is half the battle.

Why You Should AttendOCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY HAS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE A CHALLENGING ASPECT FOR BUSINESSES OF ALL SIZES AND INDUSTRIES.

WITH PROGRESSIVE CHANGES from both Federal and California OSHA, coupled with economic variableness, employers are challenged with compliance while maintaining a competitive business advantage. Training is one key area that cannot be compromised even in di�cult times. The Safety Expo will help your company cut costs while preventing injuries on the shop �oor, as well as the construction site, through synergistic training involving aspects of general and construction industries. The Safety Expo is recognized for their commitment to safety, and they owe that to the importance they place on developing people through training. Developing employees at all levels that are competent in safety (meaning those that possess the knowledge, skills, and experience to perform safely consistently) is critical to any operation. The Safety Expo will provide opportunities to develop safety competencies through seminars, workshops, and visiting the vendors. Employees who attend will be able to bring back new innovations and more economical ways to keep employees and their families safe. This new knowledge can also help your company stay in the forefront of safety initiatives. The Safety Expo is a unique experience because of the ability to meet the safety training needs of both general and construction industries.

308: Elements of an E�ective Injury and Illness Prevention Program 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm David Harrington, MPH, California Department of Public Health and Dave

Strickler, Consultant, Occupational Health Branch – Part 1 of this session will cover an e�ective Injury and Illness and Prevention Program is the ba-sic foundation that all safety conscious construction companies must have. While it is the most frequently cited Cal/OSHA violation, more importantly, it’s the basis upon which the rest of your health and safety program rests. Without that foundation the rest of your program can break down more easily. Come and learn about the eight basic elements and learn what they should look like in your company. The ninth element, though optional, can be the most important, i.e., having a labor/management health and safety committee. When you want to move from meeting the minimum criteria to being proactive then you need to have true worker involvement. Having the whole crew invested in health and safety means having ac-tive participants where the responsibilities and the rewards are shared. Part 2–As a contractor are you aware that you are required by Cal/OSHA to conduct e�ective tailgate trainings and other types of trainings? Maybe, you are doing these trainings but in the back of your mind wonder if they are doing any good? Maybe you are wondering if your Spanish-speaking workers understand what the hazards are on the job-site? The elements of e�ective safety training, the limitations of written materials and why visual media and hands-on methods are often more e�ective will be presented and discussed. A bilingual video for contractors on lead paint and ladder safety will be given out to all participants to use as part of your training

program. By the conclusion of this 2 hour session, participants will be able to: Describe the 9 elements of an e�ective IIPP; know what is involved in creating a living IIPP program; list at least �ve elements of e�ective safety training; know how to prepare for e�ective safety training.

309: Circular Saw and Pneumatic Nailer 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm Darin Wallace, Cal/OSHA – Instruction on the proper use of circular saws

and use of pneumatic nailers.

310: Flagger—Interactive & Hands-on 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm Jerry Bach, The Safety Center – The Flagger Interactive Course was de-

veloped to provide Flaggers with the basic knowledge, information and awareness to perform their jobs safely. Before starting a job, Flaggers are encouraged to talk with their supervisor and familiarize themselves with the work area, speci�c job site hazards and proper �agging procedures. Be-cause �aggers are responsible for the public safety and make the greatest number of contacts with the public of all highway or construction workers, they should be trained in safe tra�c control practices and public contact techniques. This is why the Safety Expo o�ers this hands-on and interac-tive training following the classroom bookwork. A special �agger training course has been setup in the parking lot with moving vehicles and real life simulations.

311: Crane Operations 2:00 pm – 4:30 pm Mario Bermudez, Maxim Crane Works – Crane operations carry the greatest

potential for disaster than any other activity on the project. Crane accidents in construction are often the most costly when measured in either lives or dollars. The signi�cant number of accidents associated with the use of cranes in construction and the considerable technological advances in equipment have prompted OSHA to revise the Crane Standard. Learn about the new crane standard and how it will a�ect operations on your job site. More importantly, learn how you can conduct safe and e�cient operations without injuries, property damage, delays or cost overruns. Additionally, this course will cover: Planning – including site preparation, crane erec-tion/dismantling considerations, critical lift identi�cation and other risks that may a�ect operations such as weather, power lines, rigging and com-munications. Maintenance/Site set up – hands on inspection of a crane. Inspect the overall condition of the crane (leaks, functioning lights, horns) and all required paperwork, load charts, crane manuals and all critical parts of the crane such as the load line, drums, safety aids (anti two block devices load moment indicators). Inspect the crane’s set up (outrigger set up, cribbing, barricades, tires o� ground). Personnel – are your operators quali�ed? Certi�ed? What kind of experience does the operator have on that speci�c crane model? Find out what OSHA requirements are on riggers and signal persons.

Disclaimer(s)The 2012 Safety Expo provides this education and training forum to promote safety and better business practices in all facets of our community. This includes construction, city, county, state, municipalities, water districts and all levels of industry. Our goal is to provide the highest quality educational topics and sessions at the lowest possible attendee cost. These workshops are comprehensive in content and run from 1-10 hours in-length. We have worked diligently to exclude “infomercial” classes.

Class start times are set on the hour or half-hour for scheduling convenience. It is very important that you are in your class and checked in at the designated start time so your instructor can have their full time allocation to cover the topic. It is your responsibility to make sure you have checked yourself into the class and remain in the session (subject to breaks) for the duration or you will not receive your certi�cate of completion that will distributed post-Expo. The End-time for many classes is approximate. The size and make-up of the class often a�ects how quickly the instructor covers the material, or the number of questions asked may change the length of the session. Every e�ort has been made to allow adequate time to cover the information and for questions and answers. The Safety Expo cannot guarantee the precise end time for classes. Be sure to review your course selection for any scheduling con�icts.

The Expo does not endorse the products or services of the exhibitors or other delegates nor does it verify or validate the content of any topic or class. The Expo cannot take responsibility for the failure of a presenter who does not show up or cancel their session – every e�ort will be made to reschedule attendees or place attendees in alternate sessions.

Unlicensed Operators

Like legitimate contractors, unlicensed operators sometimes use advertising to find new clients. Ads without license numbers or with numbers that are not issued by the CSLB are frequently used by the Board to identify sting targets.

The CSLB and other enforcement agencies use two sections of the law—B&P Sections 7027.1 and 7099.10—to take legal action against unlicensed contractors and, on occasion, against licensed contractors who advertise illegally.

If an unlicensed operator advertises as a contractor in a telephone directory, and if an investigation determines the entity doing the advertising is unlicensed, under B&P Section 7099.10 (a), the Registrar can issue a citation for a fine or other civil penalty assessment. The citation will also include an order of correction that requires:

any phone number in the unlawful ad and to not refer subsequent calls to any new number obtained by that person. If the order of correction isn’t made, the Registrar can have the Public Utilities Commission disconnect the phone service.

If you believe that an unlicensed contractor is actively working on a construction project, contact the CSLB at 1-800-321-CSLB (2752) or fill out a “SWIFT Lead Referral” form, which is available on the CSLB Web site, www.cslb.ca.gov.
