AI Summary

This bill creates a new section of the North Dakota Century Code that limits requirements for employees to wear face masks at work. The bill allows employees to opt-out of mask requirements by providing a certificate from a licensed physician stating the mask would endanger their health, or by submitting a statement that their religious, philosophical, or moral beliefs are opposed to wearing a face covering. This opt-out provision does not apply to employees whose employers determine that wearing a mask is essential due to the nature of the employment setting. The bill also includes an expiration date of July 31, 2023 and declares the act to be an emergency measure.
