Subcontract

C.C.R.

I need to come up with a subcontract for my subs. There are definatly some particular items I want to include. Like conduct on the job, contracting with the H.O., Doing business legitimatly (no illegals) (pretty soon we'll have to call them citizenship challenged ). So I have my particulars in mind but I'm looking for a basic starting point. Any help would be appreciated. I already did a search for subcontract in business and give a form and got nothing

Strange. You're:
a) able to find legal employees for your trade? Here in NorCal, non-union roofers choice is:
i) US born, ex-felon (sex, violence crimes) with little desire to work and hiding from their PO
ii) US born drop out kids who come and go regularly
iii) US born hispanics which will become ones competition within 2 yrs
iv) hispanics
a) illegal with crap ID
b) illegal with GREAT ID
c) legal

b) implying to me... inother words, no offense, I'm inferring, you're putting more emphasis on their immigration status than their having insurances, driver licenses, workers comp, etc. My point is SOLELY, IMO, here in CA, the government cares NADA about their immigration status (thank god, as their'd be NO construction without illegals in CA; which CA is the 6th largest economy in the WORLD)... the State cares about worker's comp - because there is only ONE vendor of Workers Comp for ROOFING in CA ... the State. (Of the more than 5600 'active' roofing contractors licensed in the state, less than 2500 claim to have employees; in other words, about 60% are paying CASH to their employees, and in case of serious injury claim that Jose just started that day. And the immigration question NEVER is brought up by workers comp... driving the WC rates THRU the roof.)


Anyway. My subs filled out the gov't paperwork. Signed my contract which said 5 different ways they were responsible for complying with ... and then the laundry list of everything.

If they were illegal, and something happened, there was NO way they could decline knowledge of the requirement.

immigrants are fine, this country was based on immigrants illegals are not o.k. Illegals have no S.S.# so don't pay taxes. so don't deserve drivers licenses and I know when I got my liability insurance they asked for my drivers licenses. so how are they getting ins. and WC without proper I.D.? Because they're using false I.D. and S.S.#s hence the word "ILLEGAL". They don't pay taxes so they can afford to underbid jobs at least 50% pushing honest contractors out of business. I don't know if you're an illegal but if you were a loyal American you would not be saying," Thank god for illegals". Don't get the wrong idea, I'm not prejudice (half portuguese) but if I choose I'll demand to see the greencard of anyone on my jobsite. period
