Bill Summary

Amends the Paid Leave for All Workers Act. Provides that the definition of "employee" does not include: (1) a student enrolled in and regularly attending classes in a college or university, who is employed for less than an average of 30 hours per week by an employer, and who is not a participant in an adult education and literacy program at that college or university; or (2) a student enrolled in and regularly attending high school classes, who is under 18 years of age, and who is employed on a temporary or less than full time basis.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Paid Leave for All Workers Act to clarify who is considered an "employee" for the purposes of paid leave benefits. Specifically, it excludes college or university students who work less than an average of 30 hours per week and are not participating in adult education programs at that institution. It also excludes high school students under 18 who are employed temporarily or on a part-time basis. These changes aim to refine the definition of an employee to better reflect the employment situations of students.
