The Risks Most Janitorial Vendors Never Mention

You could be liable for your vendor’s mistakes — and most facility managers don’t know it.

  • Unregistered vendor = your fine. If your janitorial contractor isn’t registered with the State of California, you can be fined $2,000–$25,000 (Property Service Workers Protection Act).

  • Your indemnification clause won’t save you. Under Labor Code 2810.3, clients can share liability for their vendor’s wage violations period.

  • One skipped notice, one lawsuit. Under the Displaced Janitor Opportunity Act, a botched vendor transition can let displaced workers sue you, not just the outgoing vendor.

  • Healthcare facilities: a wage gap is a legal gap. If your cleaning vendor pays $19.50/hour instead of the $24/hour healthcare minimum wage (SB 525), you could be facing a Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) claim.

  • Costs are up 40% in 3 years and rising. Do you know why, and what you can actually do about it?

Your Vendor’s Compliance Problem Could Become Yours

California law can expose building owners and managers to risk when their janitorial contractor fails to comply. Understand the laws, your potential liability, and what you should be asking your vendor.
