Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
A.  Any contract entered into under the Roofing Contractor
Registration Act shall include a statement that all individuals
performing work under the contract are covered by workers'
compensation insurance.
B.  If an affidavit of exemption for workers' compensation
insurance is used by a legitimately exempt person, it shall be
attached to the contract and it shall be used only for residential
construction projects.  All commercial projects shall require all
individuals performing work on such project to be covered by
workers' compensation insurance as employees of the person
registered under the Roofing Contractor Registration Act.  However,
any day laborer who can show proof of being covered by workers'
compensation insurance under the temporary labor agency for whom he
or she is hired-out may provide an affidavit from the temporary
labor agency to meet the requirement of this section for authority
to use an affidavit of exemption.  No roofing contractor required to
be registered under the Roofing Contractor Registration Act shall
hire any out-of-state company or person or use any person or
independent contractor that is not registered under the Roofing
Contractor Registration Act with the required workers' compensation
insurance or who is not deemed his or her employee for purposes of
workers' compensation insurance.
C.  In no event shall a homeowner be held liable in the workers'
compensation administrative system for injury or death to any person
who performs work under a contract with a person required by law to
be registered under the Roofing Contractor Registration Act and have
workers' compensation insurance on all persons performing work on
the roofing project.
