Bill Summary

Relative to hoisting regulation exemptions during the course of a public utility company or other company employee strike or lockout. Public Safety and Homeland Security.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Massachusetts law to restrict exemptions from hoisting regulations during a public utility company or other company employee strike or lockout. The bill requires that non-striking/locked-out employees must have obtained a company license from an approved training program or be working during a declared emergency by the governor in order for the hoisting regulation exemptions to apply. This aims to ensure public safety during labor disputes involving companies that operate hoisting equipment.
