29 VII. General Requirements: Living Wage Orange County is committed to providing its employees with a living wage and encourages agencies it funds to pursue the same goal. A copy of Orange County's Living Wage Contractor Policy is included in Attachment C. E-Verify HB789 imposes E-Verify requirements on contractors who enter into certain contracts with state agencies and local governments. The legislation specifically prohibits governmental units from entering into certain contracts "unless the contractor and the contractor's subcontractors comply with the requirements of Article 2 of Chapter 65 of the General Statues." (Article 2 of Chapter 65 establishes North Carolina's E-Verify requirements for private employers.) It is important to note that the verification requirement applies to subcontractors as well as contractors. The new laws specifically prohibit governmental units from entering into contracts with contractors who have not (or their subcontractors have not) complied with E-Verify.
