Bill > HB3295

This bill amends the Day and Temporary Labor Services Act to clarify and expand the rules around placement fees for day and temporary labor service agencies. Specifically, the bill allows such agencies to charge a placement fee to a third-party client when they successfully help a day or temporary laborer secure permanent employment. The bill establishes two methods for calculating these placement fees: first, a fee agreed upon in advance by the agency and the client, and second, a fee not exceeding the total daily commission rate the agency would have received over 60 days, minus the daily commission rate actually received during that period. The key change is providing more explicit guidelines for how these placement fees can be structured, which aims to provide clarity for labor service agencies, temporary workers, and the clients who hire them. The bill maintains the existing provision that these agencies cannot restrict a temporary worker's right to accept a permanent position or a client's right to offer permanent employment.
