Notes

Washington reached this industry by naming 'on-site independent contractors' and 'goods and services providers' at State agencies (21-14, Aug. 9, 2021, Ex. SEC-12-074) and extending the same to educational and health care settings (21-14.1); the Oct. 18 deadline required hiring and verification in the quarter.
