Contractor Arbitration
The Home Improvement Contractor Law provides homeowners with the right to initiate an arbitration action(as an
alternative to court action)if they have a dispute with a contractor. The same right is not automatically afforded to a
contractor,however. The contractor would have to resolve any dispute he/she has with a homeowner in court unless
both parties agree to the optional clause provided below. This clause would give the contractor the same right to
arbitration as is afforded to the homeowner by the Home Improvement Contractor Law.
The contractor and the homeowner hereby mutually agree in advance that in the event the contractor has a dispute
concerning this contract,the contractor may submit the dispute to a private arbitration firm which has been approved by
the Secretary of the Executive Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation and the consumer shall be required
to submit to such arbitration as provided In Massachusetts General Laws, chapter 142A.
Homeowner's Signature- Contractor's Signature
NOTICE: The signatures of the parties above apply only to the agreement of the parties to alternative dispute
resolution initiated by the contractor. The homeowner may initiate alternative dispute resolution even where this
section is not separately signed by the parties.
Homeowner's Rights
A homeowner's rights under the Home Improvement Contractor Law(MGL chapter 142A)and other consumer
protection laws(i.e.MGL chapter 93A)may not be waived in any way,even by agreement. However,homeowners
may be excluded from certain rights if the contractor they choose is not properly registered as prescribed by law.
Homeowners who secure their own building permits are automatically excluded from all Guaranty Fund provisions of
the Home Improvement Contractor Law. The contractor is responsible for completing the work as described,in a
timely and workmanlike manner. Homeowners may be entitled to other specific legal rights if the contractor
guarantees or provides an express warranty for workmanship or materials. In addition to guarantees or warranties
provided by the contractor,all goods sold in Massachusetts carry an implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for
a particular purpose. An enumeration of other matters on which the homeowner and contractor lawfully agree may be
added to the terms of the contract as long as they do not restrict a homeowner's basic consumer rights. If you have
questions about your consumer/homeowner rights,contact the Consumer Information Hotline(listed below).
Execution of Contract
The contract must be executed in duplicate and should not be signed until a copy of all exhibits and referenced
documents have been attached. Parties are also advised not to sign the document until all blank sections have been
filled in or marked as void,deleted,or not applicable. One original signed copy of the contract with attachments is to
be given to the owner and the other kept by the contractor. Any modification to the original contract must be in writing
and agreed to by both parties. Contracted work may not begin until both parties have received a fully executed copy of
the contract,and the three day rescission period has expired.
Accelerated Payments
A contractor may not demand payments in advance of the dates specified on the payment schedule in cases where the
homeowner deems him/herself to be financially insecure. However, in instances where a contractor deems him/herself
to be financially insecure,the contractor may require that the balance of funds not yet due be placed in a joint escrow
account as a prerequisite to continuing the contracted work. Withdrawal of funds from said account would require the
signatures of both parties.

Information and Instructions
Massachusetts General Laws chapter 152 requires all employers to provide workers'compensation for their employees.
Pursuant to this statute,an employee is defined as"...every person in the service of another under any contract of hire,
express or implied,oral or written."
An employer is defined as"an individual,partnership,association,corporation or other legal entity,or any two or more
of the foregoing engaged in a joint enterprise,and including the legal representatives of a deceased employer,or the
receiver or trustee of an individual,partnership,association or other legal entity,empi employees.
Howe
ver the
owner of a dwelling house having not more than three apartments and who resides therein,or the occupant of the
dwelling house of another who employs persons to do maintenance,construction or repair work on such dwelling house
or on the grounds or building appurtenant thereto shall not because of such employment be deemed to be an employer."
MGL chapter 152, §25C(6)also states that"every state or local licensing agency shall withhold the issuance or
renewal of a license or permit to operate a business or to construct buildings in the commonwealth for any
applicant who has not produced acceptable evidence of compliance with the insurance coverage required."
Additionally,MGL chapter 152, §25C(7)states"Neither the commonwealth nor any of its political subdivisions shall
enter into any contract for the performance of public work until acceptable evidence of compliance with the insurance
requirements of this chapter have been presented to the contracting authority."
Applicants
Please fill out the workers',compensation affidavit completely,by checking the boxes that apply to your situation and,if
necessary,supply sub-contractor(s)name(s),address(es)and phone number(s)along with their certificate(s)of
insurance. Limited Liability Companies(LLC)or Limited Liability Partnerships(LLP)with no employees other than the
members or partners,are not required to carry workers'compensation insurance. If an LLC or LLP does have
employees,a policy is required. Be advised that this affidavit may be submitted to the Department of Industrial
Accidents for confirmation of insurance coverage. Also be sure to sign and date the affidavit. The affidavit should
be returned to the city or town that the application for the permit or license is being requested,not the Department of
Industrial Accidents. Should you have any questions regarding the.law or if you are required to obtain a workers'
compensation policy;please call the Department at the number listed below. Self-insured companies should enter their
,self-insurance license number on the appropriate line.
City or Town Officials
Please be sure that the affidavit is complete and printed legibly. The Department has provided a space at the bottom
of the affidavit for you to fill out in the event the Office of Investigations has to contact you regarding the applicant.
Please be sure to fill in the permit/license number which will be used as a reference number. In addition,an applicant
that must submit multiple permit/license applications in any given year,need only submit one affidavit indicating current
policy information(if necessary)and under"Job Site Address"the applicant should write"all locations in (city or
town)."A copy of the affidavit that has been officially stamped or marked by the city or town may be provided to the
applicant as proof that a valid affidavit is on file for future permits or licenses. A new affidavit must be filled out each
year.Where a home owner or citizen is obtaining a license or permit not related to any business or commercial venture
(i.e.a dog license or permit to burn leaves etc.)said person is NOT required to complete this affidavit.
The Office of Investigations would like to thank you in advance for your cooperation and should you have any questions,
please do not hesitate to give us a call.
