     473.144 Certificates of compliance for contracts. 

    Neither the council nor an agency listed in section 
 473.143, subdivision 1, may accept any bid or proposal for a 
 contract or execute a contract for goods or services in excess 
 of $50,000 with any business having more than 20 full-time 
 employees on a single working day during the previous 12 months, 
 unless the business has an affirmative action plan for the 
 employment of minority persons, women, and the disabled that has 
 been approved by the commissioner of human rights.  Receipt of a 
 certificate of compliance from the commissioner of human rights 
 signifies that a business has an approved affirmative action 
 plan.  A certificate is valid for two years.  Section 363.073 
 governs revocation of certificates.  The rules adopted by the 
 commissioner of human rights under section 363.074 apply to this 
 section.
