e. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of this section or of any other general, special, or local law, ordinance, city charter or administrative code, a construction worker affected by this law shall not be barred from the right to recover the difference between the amount paid to the employee and the amount which should have been paid to the employee under the provisions of this section because of the prior receipt of the employee without protest of wages or benefits paid, or on account of the construction worker’s failure to state orally or in writing upon any payroll or receipt which the employee is required to sign that the wages or benefits received by the employee are received under protest, or on account of the employee’s failure to indicate a protest against the amount, or that the amount so paid does not constitute payment in full wages or benefits due to the employee for the period covered by such payment.
f. Any person who is a victim of retaliation shall be entitled to all relief necessary to make such person whole, including, but not limited to:
1. An injunction to restrain any adverse or retaliatory action;
2. Reinstatement to the position such employee would have had but for such action, or to an equivalent position; and
3. Reinstatement of full benefits and seniority rights including payment of any missed back pay, plus interest.
