Relative to an eight hour work day. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing labor laws in Massachusetts to require employers to provide compensation to employees for any work hours that exceed 40 hours per week or 8 hours per day. The current law only requires compensation for hours worked beyond 40 per week, but this bill expands that to also include any hours worked beyond 8 in a single day, even if the weekly total remains under 40 hours.
