Bill Summary
For legislation relative to unemployment compensation and labor disputes. Labor and Workforce Development.
AI Summary
This bill amends Chapter 151A of the General Laws to modify the provisions related to unemployment compensation and labor disputes. Specifically, it removes the 30-day waiting period for unemployment benefits if the employer hires a permanent replacement worker for the claimant's position. The bill also provides exceptions to the 30-day waiting period if the labor dispute is caused by the employer's failure to comply with an agreement or contract, including a collective bargaining agreement. Additionally, the bill clarifies that the payment of regular union dues or assessments does not constitute participation in or financing of a labor dispute, and it also addresses situations where an employee is locked out by the employer.
