Public contractors; public utility franchises
Sec. 10. Every contract to which the state or any of its political or
civil subdivisions is a party, including franchises granted to public
utilities, shall contain a provision requiring the contractor and his
subcontractors not to discriminate against any employee or applicant
for employment to be employed in the performance of such contract,
with respect to his hire, tenure, terms, conditions or privileges of
employment or any matter directly or indirectly related to
employment, because of his race, religion, color, sex, disability,
national origin, or ancestry. Breach of this covenant may be regarded
as a material breach of the contract.
