09500SB1314sam003 - 8 - LRB095 05017 WGH 35328 a

1 is not generally negotiable shall be prohibited as a method of
2 payment of wages. Day and temporary labor service agencies that
3 make daily wage payments shall provide written notification to
4 all day or temporary laborers of the right to request weekly,
5 bi-weekly, or semi-monthly checks. The day and temporary labor
6 service agency may provide this notice by conspicuously posting

16 party client in addition to the work listed in the written
17 description.
18     (f) The total amount deducted for meals, equipment, and
19 transportation may not cause a day or temporary laborer's
20 hourly wage to fall below the State or federal minimum wage.
21 However, a day and temporary labor service agency may deduct
22 the actual market value of reusable equipment provided to the
23 day or temporary laborer by the day and temporary labor service
24 agency which the day or temporary laborer fails to return, if
25 the day or temporary laborer provides a written authorization
26 for such deduction at the time the deduction is made.

4 shall be paid by the day and temporary labor service agency for
5 a minimum of 4 hours of pay at the agreed upon rate of pay.
6 However, in the event the day and temporary labor service
7 agency contracts the day or temporary laborer to work at
