Bill Summary

For legislation relative to wage enforcement statutes of limitations. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill amends several sections of Massachusetts labor law to increase the statute of limitations for wage enforcement from 3 years to 6 years. Specifically, it changes the time period during which workers can file claims for unpaid wages, overtime pay, and other wage violations. This will give workers more time to pursue legal action against employers who have not properly compensated them.
