LRB104 19322 SPS 32768 b
1
AN ACT concerning State government.
2
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3
represented in the General Assembly:
4
Section 5.
The Attorney General Act is amended by changing
5
Section 6.3 as follows:
6
(15 ILCS 205/6.3)
7
Sec. 6.3.
Worker Protection Unit.
8
(a) The General Assembly finds that the welfare and
9
prosperity of all Illinois citizens and businesses requires
10
the establishment of a Unit within the Attorney General's
11
Office dedicated to combatting businesses that underpay their
12
employees, force their employees to work in unsafe conditions,
13
and gain an unfair economic advantage by avoiding their tax
14
and labor responsibilities. The Worker Protection Unit shall
15
be focused on protecting the State's workforce to ensure
16
workers are paid properly, guarantee safe workplaces, and
17
allow law-abiding business owners to thrive through healthy
18
and fair competition. Businesses that violate the State's
19
worker protection laws put a greater burden on taxpayers by
20
hurting the State's ability to provide critical services;
21
compliant businesses cannot compete against those who gain an
22
unfair advantage by evading their responsibilities.
23
(b) There is created within the Office of the Attorney

together with other staff as deemed necessary by the Attorney
4
General, shall have the power and duty on behalf of persons
5
within this State, to intervene in, initiate, and enforce all
6

12
regarding labor or employment in this State
, whenever the
13
Attorney General determines that such action is necessary to
14
protect the rights and interests of Illinois workers and
15
Illinois businesses.
16
(c) Prior to initiating an action, the Attorney General
17

premises and records available for inspection and by
13
permitting the employer's employees to participate in
14
confidential interviews conducted by the Attorney General. An
15
employer who is subject to an investigation by the Attorney
16
General under this Section has the right to be assisted by
17
counsel. An employer may refuse to grant the Attorney General
18
access to non-publicly accessible areas of the employer's
19

of Sangamon or Cook County, or the circuit court in the county
8
in which the witness resides, for an order requiring the
9
witness to comply with the subpoena. The court's order shall
10
require the witness to comply with the subpoena by a specified
11
date and provide a date on which the witness shall show cause
12
in court as to why the witness should not be held in contempt
13
of court if the witness fails to comply with the order. The
14
Attorney General may recover reasonable fees and expenses
15
incurred in obtaining the order. If the witness is held in

1
(c-35) If, in the course of an investigation conducted in
2
accordance with subsection (c), the Attorney General believes
3
that relevant evidence of a violation of a law enforced by the
4
Worker Protection Unit as set forth in subsection (b) is
5
located at the premises of an employer or in an employer's
6
records and if the employer has refused to allow the Attorney
7
General to inspect the premises or the Attorney General has
8
reasonable cause to believe that an immediate inspection of
9
the premises is necessary to carry out its investigation, then
10
the Attorney General may file or cause to be filed an
11
application for an administrative inspection warrant. The
12
issuance and execution of an administrative inspection warrant
13
shall be as follows:
14
(1) A judge of a circuit court, upon proper oath or
15
affirmation showing an inspection is reasonable, may issue
16
warrants for the purpose of conducting administrative
17
inspections and seizures of property appropriate to the
18
inspections. For the purposes of the issuance of an
19
administrative inspection warrant, an inspection is
20
reasonable if a valid public interest in the effective
21
enforcement of any statute enforced by the Worker
22
Protection Unit sufficiently justifies administrative
23
inspection of the employer's premises or records.
24
(2) An administrative inspection warrant shall be
25
issued only after receipt of an affidavit of a person
26
having knowledge of the facts alleged that establishes the

grounds for issuing the administrative inspection warrant.
2
If the circuit judge is satisfied that there are
3
reasonable grounds for issuance of an administrative
4
inspection warrant, the judge shall issue an
5
administrative inspection warrant. The administrative
6
inspection warrant shall:
7
(A) state the grounds for its issuance and the
8
name of each person whose affidavit has been taken in
9
support of the warrant;
10
(B) be directed to an Assistant Attorney General
11
appointed by the Attorney General or to other staff of
12
the Office of the Attorney General who will execute
13
the warrant;
14
(C) command the person to whom it is directed to
15
inspect the identified premises or records for the
16
purposes specified in the warrant and, if appropriate,
17
direct the seizure of the identified records or other
18
property;
19
(D) identify the item or types of property to be
20
seized, if any; and
21
(E) direct that the warrant may be served at any
22
time of the day or night and designate the circuit
23
court judge to whom it shall be returned.
24
(3) An administrative inspection warrant issued under
25
this subsection must be executed and returned within 10
26
days after the date of its issuance, unless, upon a
HB4725 Enrolled
- 8 -
LRB104 19322 SPS 32768 b
1
showing of a need for additional time, the court that
2
issued the inspection warrant orders otherwise. If
3
property is seized in accordance with an administrative
4
inspection warrant, a copy of the inventory of the seized
5
property shall be given to the person from whom or from
6
whose controlled premises the property is taken. If no
7
person is available, the inspection warrant and a copy of
8
the inventory shall be left at the controlled premises.
9
The inventory shall be made under oath by the person
10
executing the warrant.
11
(4) An administrative inspection warrant shall be
12
returnable before the judge of the circuit court who
13
issued the inspection warrant or any judge named in the
14
inspection warrant or before the circuit court. The judge
15
before whom the return is made shall attach to the
16
administrative inspection warrant a copy of the return and
17
all papers returnable in connection with the warrant and
18
file them with the clerk of the circuit court in which the
19
inspection warrant is executed.
20
(5) No warrant shall be quashed or evidence suppressed
21
because of technical irregularities not affecting the
22
substantial rights of the person responsible for the
23
employer's premises or property.
24
(6) This subsection does not prevent the inspection
25
without a warrant of books and records produced in
26
accordance with a subpoena issued under subsection (c).

(7) No administrative inspection warrant shall be

issued under this subsection with the intent of obtaining
3
evidence for an ongoing criminal investigation.
4
(d) In an action brought under this Section, the Attorney
5
General may obtain, as a remedy, monetary damages to the
6
State, restitution, and equitable relief, including any
7
permanent or preliminary injunction, temporary restraining
8
order, or other order, including an order enjoining the
9
defendant from engaging in a violation, or order any action as
10
may be appropriate. In addition, the Attorney General may
11
request and the court may impose a civil penalty against any
12
person or entity found by the court to have violated
any law
13
regarding labor or employment in this State, including
the
14
Prevailing Wage Act, the Employee Classification Act, the
15
Minimum Wage Law, the Day and Temporary Labor Services Act,
16
the Wage Payment and Collection Act, or any other law related
17
to the payment of wages, the safety of the workplace, or fair
18
employment practices, in a sum not to exceed the maximum
19
amount of any civil penalty prescribed by law. Neither the
20
State nor an aggrieved individual may recover monetary relief,
21
including civil penalties, in more than one proceeding related
22
to the same violation.
23
(e) Upon the Attorney General's request, the Illinois
24
Department of Labor shall provide any materials or documents
25
already in the Department's possession pertaining to the
26
