Bill Summary

For legislation to further regulate pipefitting exemptions. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.

AI Summary

This bill clarifies an existing exemption in Massachusetts law related to pipefitting regulations by modifying Section 87 of Chapter 146 of the General Laws. Specifically, the bill expands the current exemption to explicitly state that pipefitting regulations will not apply to individuals employed by contractors or subcontractors who are working on the premises or property of certain organizations. While the bill does not specify which organizations are referenced, it appears to be creating a broader exemption for pipefitting work performed by contractors and subcontractors in specific organizational settings. The amendment seeks to provide additional clarity about who is exempt from pipefitting licensing or regulatory requirements, potentially reducing regulatory burden for contractors and subcontractors working on specific organizational properties.
