What’s in it

This bill provides that an employer who requires an employee to work on holidays specified in the bill shall pay the employee for such work performed on such day a rate of one and one-half times the regular rate at which the employee is employed. This provision is enforced pursuant to Code chapter 91A, which provides for enforcement by the director of the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing, which may include recovery of damages and civil penalties.
