AI Summary

This bill amends the Massachusetts Workers' Compensation law to make it elective for officers or directors of non-profit entities or corporations, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, who are not compensated. These officers or directors can opt out of workers' compensation coverage by providing a written waiver to the Director of Industrial Accidents. The Director is required to promulgate regulations to implement this provision, and violations will subject the non-profit corporation to the penalties set forth in Section 25C of the Workers' Compensation law.
