DIR Notice to Public Works Contractors and Subcontractors: eCPR System on Hold Pending Upgrades

The Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) has posted a notice informing contractors and subcontractors that enforcement of the requirement to post payroll online using its electronic certified payroll reporting (eCPR) system is temporarily on hold.

Contractors and subcontractors will not be required to submit certified payroll records (CPRs) into DIR’s eCPR system until the online system is upgraded. The upgrades, which are slated for completion by June 2016, will allow contractors and subcontractors to more easily submit CPRs.

Awarding bodies must still ensure that contractors and subcontractors are registered under DIR’s public works contractor registration system, and that they comply with all other prevailing wage laws including, but not limited to, the reporting of CPRs.
