Bill Summary

Relative to multiple definitions of employee. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill aims to consolidate multiple definitions of "employee" by amending Sections 148B of Chapter 149 and Section 1 of Chapter 152 of the Massachusetts General Laws. Specifically, it proposes to strike the reference to "chapter 151" in Section 148B and insert a reference to "chapters 151 and 152," thereby expanding the application of the employee definition in Section 148B to include Chapter 152, which covers workers' compensation. Additionally, the bill adds a new paragraph to Section 1 of Chapter 152, stating that any reference to an "employee" shall have the same meaning as in Section 148B of Chapter 149, effectively aligning the definition of "employee" across these related labor and workers' compensation statutes.
