AI Summary

This bill amends the Massachusetts workers' compensation law to make workers' compensation coverage optional for officers of non-profit entities or corporations who are not compensated. The bill allows these officers to provide the Director of Industrial Accidents with a written waiver of their rights under the workers' compensation law. The bill also requires the Director to promulgate regulations to implement this provision, and subjects non-profit corporations that violate this provision to the penalties set forth in the existing Section 25C of the workers' compensation law.
