Bill Summary
Relative to individual or business entities who contract to perform work or provide services for the benefit of others. Labor and Workforce Development.
AI Summary
This bill seeks to amend Section 148B of Chapter 149 of the General Laws to provide additional criteria for determining whether an individual or business entity contracting to perform work or provide a service for the benefit of another should be considered an independent contractor rather than an employee. The key provisions include allowing an individual or business entity to satisfy the relevant test if they have pre-registered as a payroll-taxpaying entity, meet at least 6 out of 11 specified requirements, are conducting business in a franchise relationship subject to Federal Trade Commission rules, or have been determined to be preempted from the relevant test by federal law.
