An Act relative to certain licensed pipefitters and refrigeration technicians
This bill amends Massachusetts state law to include licensed pipefitters and refrigeration technicians alongside other skilled tradespeople employed by the Massachusetts Port Authority. The specific change adds these two job titles to a list of workers who are currently exempt from certain licensing requirements under Chapter 32 of the General Laws. By making this textual update, the legislation ensures that pipefitters and refrigeration technicians at the port authority are treated consistently with electricians, utility technicians, and steam engineers regarding their professional licensing status.
