Results and Transparency Workforce Report

About the Results and Transparency Workforce Report

Committee members use the Results and Transparency Workforce Report to review contractor performance toward workforce participation goals on MnDOT and State Aid Projects over $5 million. Specifically, the report compares labor hours worked by women and people of color against applicable workforce participation goals. The report also compares contractor commitments toward these goals.
