Bill Summary
For legislation to protect wages of employees who receive wages through an electronic wage card. Labor and Workforce Development.
AI Summary
This bill aims to protect employees who receive their wages through an electronic wage card, which is defined as a card or similar method used by an employer to pay an employee, with wages deposited into an account controlled by the employer or a third party designated by the employer. It explicitly prohibits employers from making employees pay for the implementation of these electronic wage card systems. Furthermore, the bill mandates that employers using electronic wage cards must provide employees with the ability to withdraw their full wages without any fees on or after their payday, and any fees associated with using the card after the first transaction must be clearly disclosed to the employee in advance, with the exception of third-party fees outside the employer's control.
