Universal Citation: TN Code § 50-6-907 (2021)
The exemption obtained pursuant to this part shall be valid for two (2) years from a date and time set by the secretary of state. No more than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the exemption period, a construction services provider may file an application to renew an exemption. Renewal of an exemption shall be made in a manner established by the secretary of state.
- In addition to the revocation set out in subsection (a), a workers' compensation exemption shall be revoked by the secretary of state upon:
- Notification from the board that the board has revoked or suspended any license issued to the construction services provider by the board, including a license issued to a business entity through which the construction services provider obtained such an exemption. For purposes of this subdivision (b)(1)(A), if a construction services provider's license is revoked, whether or not such license is in the provider's individual name or in the name of a business entity through which the provider obtained an exemption, then any exemption obtained through such business entity shall be revoked;
- Notification from the department of any violations of § 50-6-412 by the construction services provider, including any violation against a business entity through which the construction services provider obtained such an exemption. For purposes of this subdivision (b)(1)(B), if a construction services provider has violated § 50-6-412, whether or not such violation was committed by the individual or a business entity through which the provider obtained an exemption, then any exemption obtained through such business entity shall be revoked and all exemptions in the provider's name shall be subject to revocation;
- A determination by the secretary of state that the construction services provider no longer meets the requirements for an exemption established pursuant to this part; or
- A determination by the secretary of state that the construction services provider failed to renew prior to the expiration date of such exemption or the provider failed to pay any fees required to be paid pursuant to this part.
- Any notification of a violation made by the department pursuant to subdivision (b)(1)(B) shall include information indicating whether such violation requires a temporary or permanent revocation pursuant to § 50-6-412.
- If a provider's exemption is revoked pursuant to this section, the secretary of state shall:
- Remove the construction services provider's name from the registry within seven (7) days of receipt of notification from the department or the board, or upon making a determination as provided in subdivision (b)(1)(C) or (b)(1)(D); and
- Notify the construction services provider that such provider is required to notify, within twenty-four (24) hours of such revocation, any person or entity for whom the provider is currently providing services that the provider's workers' compensation exemption has been revoked.
- If a provider's exemption is revoked pursuant to subdivision (b)(1), the administrative and judicial procedures available to such provider shall be those procedures set out in § 50-6-906.
