Bill Summary
Relative to an eight hour work day. Labor and Workforce Development.
AI Summary
This bill amends the General Laws of Massachusetts to establish an eight-hour work day. Specifically, it modifies existing legislation that requires employees to be compensated for any work exceeding 40 hours per week, by adding a requirement for compensation for work exceeding 8 hours per day. This change aims to provide additional protections for workers and ensure they are fairly compensated for overtime work, regardless of whether it exceeds the standard 40-hour work week.
