Bill Summary

For legislation to establish training wages. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend the existing Massachusetts General Laws to establish a training wage. Specifically, it would provide that the state's minimum wage law would not apply during the first 480 hours of employment, which is defined as a "training period." During this training period, employers would be allowed to pay a wage below the standard minimum wage of $10.00 per hour, unless the state's labor commissioner expressly approves a lesser wage under specific provisions in the law.
