Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill says that, under any federal law, deciding whether a worker is an employee of a business or person must be done without considering whether that business or person gives the worker benefits. Benefits covered include ones the worker can keep after stopping work for that person, such as portable benefits, and ones commonly given to full-time employees, like workers' compensation, paid leave, health insurance, disability coverage, retirement savings, and training. It also covers money or other contributions toward those benefits, whether paid by the business, the worker, or both. The rule would apply starting on the date the bill becomes law.
