Bill Summary

Updating overtime protections to protect the Commonwealth's middle class workers

AI Summary

This bill updates the overtime protections in Massachusetts to better protect middle-class workers. It removes several exemptions from overtime pay requirements, changes the salary threshold for the executive, administrative, or professional exemption, and establishes a formula to automatically increase the overtime threshold rate over time. The goal is to ensure more workers in Massachusetts are eligible for overtime pay when they work more than 40 hours per week.
