An Act to provide retirement security to care workers

This bill creates a retirement savings program specifically for personal care attendants and family child care providers in Massachusetts to improve their financial security. The state will establish a 403(b) account or similar plan where workers can save through payroll deductions, while the government agrees to make mandatory contributions and match a portion of employee savings. A nine-member governance board, including representatives from labor unions, will oversee the program's design and operations to ensure it meets worker needs. The law requires the relevant state agencies to launch this enrollment system within one year of the bill passing.
