Bill Summary

Clarifying the existing pipefitting exemption

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 87 of Chapter 146 of the Massachusetts General Laws to clarify an existing exemption related to pipefitting regulations. Specifically, the bill expands the current exemption by adding language that excludes pipefitting performed by employees of contractors or subcontractors working on the premises or property of certain organizations from existing regulatory provisions. The new language indicates that pipefitting work done by contractors or subcontractors for organizations like utilities will not be subject to the standard regulatory requirements. This modification appears designed to provide more flexibility for organizations in how they can engage pipefitting workers, potentially reducing regulatory burden for contractors working on utility or similar organizational properties.
