AI Summary

This bill aims to expand the continuation of health insurance coverage for employees in the event of a plant closing. It amends current law to include additional types of health insurance plans, such as hospital, medical, dental, and optometric services, in the requirement for employers to provide continued health insurance coverage to employees who lose their jobs due to a plant closing. The bill also specifies that employers cannot circumvent this requirement through special contracts with employees or other means, and that corporate officers and managers are considered to have employees in their service for the purposes of this law.
