Bill > H3849

This bill authorizes the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development to establish a pilot program called the "Massachusetts Smart Work Week Pilot" to promote and study the benefits and impacts of a four-day work week arrangement for qualifying employers and employees. The bill defines a "four-day work week" as employees receiving a meaningful reduction in actual work hours without a reduction in overall pay. The bill outlines the application process for qualifying employers, the criteria for selecting participating employers, and the data collection and reporting requirements throughout the pilot's minimum two-year duration. The bill also provides tax credits for qualifying employers that participate in the pilot program for at least one year and submit the required data.
