Bill Summary

Relative to a state minimum wage for municipal employees. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend the state's minimum wage law to apply to municipal (local government) employees, in addition to private-sector employees. The bill would strike out the word "It" in the current law and replace it with "Notwithstanding the provisions of section 27C of chapter 29 or any other general or special law to the contrary, it," which would establish that the minimum wage requirement applies to municipal employers as well as private employers. The bill also inserts the phrase "public or private" before the word "employer" in the current law, further clarifying that the minimum wage requirement applies to both public (municipal) and private employers.
