Employee definition modified for purposes of earned sick and safe time.

HF 758 modifies Minnesota's definition of "employee" for earned sick and safe time law. It adds a specific exclusion for farm workers employed by a farmer, family farm, or family farm corporation who work 28 days or less each year. This change directly affects seasonal farm workers with very limited annual employment, excluding them from the law's coverage. The bill clarifies that these workers are not considered "employees" under Minnesota Statutes section 181.9445, meaning they would not qualify for earned sick and safe time benefits under current law.
