What is required of Contractors regarding Subcontractors with 20 or more employees under the HCAO?

Under the Health Care Accountability Ordinance (HCAO), Contractors are obliged to ensure that any Subcontractors they engage with, especially those that have 20 or more employees, adhere to the same health care requirements mandated by the HCAO. This obligation is crucial as it ensures that all employees working on a project, regardless of their direct employer, are provided with the necessary health benefits and protections under the law. This requirement fosters a consistent standard of health care across all layers of contracting and maintains compliance with the HCAO. By effectively managing these contractual obligations, Contractors help to promote overall employee welfare and accountability in the use of subcontractors in their projects.

The other options would not fulfill the intent of the HCAO, as they either place unrelated requirements or suggest actions that could undermine the health care protections intended by this ordinance.
