AN ACT RELATING TO LABOR AND LABOR RELATIONS -- MINIMUM WAGES

This bill expands the state's minimum wage law to include workers employed in domestic service or within private homes, who were previously excluded from these protections. By amending the legal definition of "employee," the legislation ensures that individuals working in these settings are now covered by the same wage standards as other workers. Once signed into law, the change directly affects private employers and domestic workers by bringing them under the jurisdiction of existing minimum wage regulations.
