AI Summary

This bill seeks to clarify the Massachusetts Wage Act to protect hospital workers from being deprived of their wages. Specifically, it amends the existing law by striking the fifth paragraph and inserting a new paragraph that excludes employees of co-operative associations who are shareholders from the weekly wage payment requirement, unless they request the association to pay them weekly. The bill also excludes "casual employees" employed by the state, counties, cities, or towns from the weekly wage payment requirement.
