Bill Summary

To harmonize wage laws

AI Summary

This bill aims to harmonize wage laws by making two key changes. First, it strikes out the word "excluded" and replaces it with "included" in Section 1A of Chapter 151 of the General Laws, which likely expands the coverage of the wage laws. Secondly, it adds language to the same section to exclude from coverage those employees who do not make daily reports or visits to their employer's office or plant, potentially narrowing the scope of the wage laws for certain remote or off-site workers.
